Loved the banter and suspense. Not for the ones with a weak stomach though. Some foods you’ll never look at the same.

Sorry to the many people who recommended this but I disliked everything about it. I only finished it because I bought the audiobook and the narration was five stars.

The first half was so good but the second half was terrible.

This is a series about serial killers. It is dark and there are definitely some icky bits. It’s also a romance and there is some serious yearning and spice even amongst the dark death bits. Sloane is also a relatable serial killer, going after those who prey on others, especially women.
