4.09 AVERAGE


2.5/5 stars.

Family drama all around here with the murder of this book and with Sebastian and his peers.

Sebastian St. Cyr is pulled into another murder investigation by his Aunt Henrietta. It reveals questions hidden in the past regarding Sebastian and his life. I like these books because the history is good and Sebastain is a great character, full of flaws and strengths as he faces challenges. He is a loyal friend and suffers real anguish since he cannot have the woman he loves.

I'd have really liked it if we didn't have the b-plot of "she was a virgin, they had sex just the once, baby!" going on. But the series is lots of fun.

This one has Devlin solving a murder of a Bishop at the request of his aunt. The Bishop is found dead in a recently opened crypt and nearby is the body of his long lost missing brother also murdered but seemed to have been overlooked when the crypt was sealed many years ago. Hero is involved with this case as well as it turns out she had had several meetings with the Bishop in the weeks before his death. This is another great book in the series I really have been enjoying them.

Much better than the others, best of the series so far. There was lots of Hero, less of Sebastian and practically nothing of Kate. Yay! I just wish that the books could switch to Hero as the main character and drop Sebastian and Kate. Sebastian is just so sulky and annoying. I was going to stop reading the series but this one and my interest in seeing what happens to Hero will keep me reading.

Better and better I think.

No matter my reading mood, these keep me reading.

Not quite as good as I'd hoped — though I didn't guess who murdered who, I found most of the characters unpleasant (especially Hero. She annoyed me to no end). Just not the book for me

The underlying mystery was very convoluted, but slightly less compelling than Sebastian's ongoing family problems.
