The Day of the Dead by Nicci French

5.0

The final book in the series. And it doesn't disappoint.

Knowing that it's up to her to bring Dean Reeve out in the open to end the nightmare, Frieda has gone underground and disappeared from her friends and family. Knowing she has placed them all in dangers way, her desire to bring Dean Reeve out from where he's hiding, she sets up a scheme to end this nightmare.

Frieda's calm demeanor does her well as she moves from safe house to safe house. The one thing she had not anticipated was a young woman (Lola) who, at the behest of her professor, has decided to write her thesis on Frieda. Through a fluke of circumstance, Lola finds Frieda and now much stay with her to stay safe.

There's a great cat and mouse tension throughout the novel and brings the conclusion of Dean Reeve in a most unexpected way.

Overall, a great series!
