So I’m sorry to say that this case wasn’t my favorite. The beginning dragged and I couldn’t really see the connections. But at the end when they figured it out and started the take down, things got really exciting. But these people were so sick. And it’s so terrible what they did to their followers. Some of which who had absolutely no control. You think with a cult that a lot of people willingly join, but you see here what happens when they don’t. And it is so much worse.

We also see a huge operation take place. I thought things got as big as they could possibly get with the Ireland situation in the last book. But it seems like even more people were involved this time and now, it’s kind of like we’re just trying to outdo the previous book. It’s getting to be a bit of a bit much with every case ending with everyone under the sun involved in the takedown.

But what I continue to love about this series is how it’s always like opening the book and catching up with friends and family. It’s so comforting seeing what Mavis and Leonardo are up to. Seeing Peabody and McNabb. Seeing Reo and Nadine and Feeney, and even Commander Whitney. This time we even got to see a lot Yancy, who we haven’t seen in a while. And if you weren’t familiar with the series and the characters, and you picked up this book, you wouldn’t think it has much “romance”. But Eve and Roarke have such a legendary romance, that everything they do with, for, and to each other is just so romantic.

As always, still loving this series, even though I didn’t love this case as much as some of the others. Even though it’s a series about a murder cop solving tough murder cases, this series will always remain my comfort series.
