I enjoyed reading this and liked the mystery but found a few elements of it to be bothersome. But it was a good summer read and concluded the series well, so it served its purpose.

I am new to Hilderbrand but of the few books of hers I have read this doesn't measure up to the others. Decent enough storyline but I don't know if the motive was strong enough for me. It also felt like Hilderbrand consulted with some Gen Z'ers and threw in current pop culture references and slangs very frequently.
