This book is definitely not for the light of heart reader. While a great mystery, it does discuss and go into graphic detail of some very real and difficult topics. This mystery felt slightly different from others that I have read in that it really felt like we were going through the investigative process with the main characters the whole way. And if the reader was able to dissect the characters who were suspects along the way, the “plot” at the end may or may not have been as surprising as one would hope. All around it was a great read.

Another great one. Was relieved Lena and Angie were absent from this one. Very much appreciate the attention she brings to there ever present jeopardies of being a woman and balancing that with the dedication of a man like Will, so that I can remember there are good men in the world too. And Amanda I’d really really really growing on me, quickly becoming my favorite character in this series. Really looking forward to the next one whenever it comes out.

Might be a case of just not for me, but I found this a brutal, cruel, and voyeuristic book.
