This was a very good book in terms of character development and long-term story arcs but the mystery was subpar with a rather dull conclusion. A rare misstep in this otherwise stellar series.

This book had a great mystery that called back to the very first book in the series in a really skillful way.

This is entry-level Keyes. For a deeper dive, listen to True Crime B*llsh*t.

This book weaves together an old story of forbidden romance, thoroughly modern murder and the meaning of family. Another must-read from Ellery Adams.

Two years was a long time to wait but I'm so happy this series is continuing. It's one of my absolute favourite active urban fantasies.

This book has a lot of promise: a great mystery with lots of suspects, interesting characters and complex relationships. But the transitions are abrupt or non-existent. Characters change gear in the middle of a conversation or simply appear out of nowhere. My copy of the book is a digital galley, so I’m hopeful that the version that goes to print has addressed these concerns.
