Excellent Crime Thriller - 4 Stars
Me and Kate Burkholder are not quite seeing eye to eye. Her and her friends need to have their mouths washed out with some soap. We get it already, you are not God-fearing, pacifist Amish. If the penchant for drinking away pain and the intimidation of witnesses didn't give us this impression, the frequent f-bombs certainly clue us in. Although I really do enjoy the wonderful writing and meticulous plots, I going to have to put the series aside. The excessive ...more

I’m loving this series! Addictive and dark. Equally as gripping and intense as the first one in the series.
Not sure why it’s taken me so long to find this prolific series, but I’m sure glad that I did. Highly recommended!!
Excellent narration!

I was so excited to read this book as I really liked the first one. I think Kate is a complicated person and with this book we learn a little more about her and her past life. I also really liked Tomasetti, who has his own complications and demons. But one thing that I don't like about these 2 are their inability to admit to themselves and each other just how much they care for them.
