Incredible finale to this series. Includes one of my favorite tropes in a mystery

cults

. Grateful to have read this thrilling story! A must read for anybody who appreciates serial killer documentaries, podcasts, or true crime drama television. This series only got better with each story.

The storyline from All In just continued on and got even more twisted and complex as it went. Definitely had trouble tracking all the characters at certain points. The series just got more and more off the wall *cHaOtiC*, and not always in the best way...

That being said, I still loved the found family. Loved that this time around we got more backstory on Michael & Lia. Loved the addition of

Celine - wish she had been included a bit more heavily

.  And I will always and forever be an Agent Sterling fan.
