While I still enjoyed this, it lacked the certain charm that the first one had. There's something about that first one that just sticks out to me, and none of the sequels had that certain /something/ to them.
I think that this was a good ending to the Russian Mafia Arc that's honestly happening for a little too long. So much was happening in this book, between all the characters entering the story and all the plot lines coming to ahead, everything was well balanced and well-handled by Cosimano. and it made everything fast paced which kept me intrigued.

I think as a whole this series is fun and over the top, and great for someone who wants something light to read with a little bit of hijinks and a couple of very tense moments. I won't hesitate to recommend, and this book specifically ended on an interesting enough note that I'll most likely pick up the next one when it comes out, as I'm interested to see where the next arc will take us.
