Kathryn Nolan writes one heck of a book!! Abe is HOT with a capital HOT, and Sloane makes you envious of her effortless beauty at the same time you're falling in love with her too. The characters jump off the page and their story is fabulous! A beautiful ending to a truly amazing series!! I'm going to miss Codex!!
What a fantastic conclusion to this series. I loved seeing Abe be completely undone by a woman and open his mushy heart to love. Ahh also I would pay good cash money for more Humphrey and Reggie scenes. God I love them.
Kathryn is an amazing storyteller and has an indescribable way with words. This book is one of my new favorites of 2020 and has really cemented Codex as one of my favorite series.
Kathryn’s Codex series is what first got me into reading romantic suspense. I always avoided it for reasons I forget (they weren’t great reasons). Now romantic suspense is one of my favorite subgenres.
Kathryn is the queen of the slow-burn romance and it was executed perfectly in In the Clear. I loved Abe and Sloane and was so happy to get Abe’s story after getting to know him in the first two books. This is the third Codex book. It can be read as a stand-alone but I think you’ll enjoy it much more if you read the first two.

A great ending to a truly enjoyable series!
The final book in Kathryn Nolan's Codex series gave me everything I could've asked for... a brilliant, steamy, sexy and fun couple in Abe & Sloane plus the wrapping up of the overall storyline that began in Behind the Veil. I really enjoyed the whole "book theft private detective" aspect of this series and this book added further dimensions to all the Sherlock Holme references which I also liked.
I will say, that this series - while entertaining and a great read - isn't my favorite of Kathryn Nolan's work. While I can see that her passion for the topic and for wanting to write romantic suspense was evident, I just don't feel that these books truly showcase the incredibly talented author that Kathryn is.

Another awesome book
Another wicked awesome Kathryn Nolan book. I almost cried at the end . Reggie and his golden retriever. It was really hard to put down and go to bed.

This has been such a fun series! A little intrigue, a little romance, a little action...all make one heck of a great read.
In the Clear is book 3 - PLEASE read books 1 & 2 first to avoid spoiling it for yourself! Behind the Veil and Under the Rose are so worth it!
Abe has been on my radar throughout the series. And I gotta say, he is positively swoon worthy. My favorite by far.

Absolute GOLD from beginning to end! I have LOVED the Codex gang since the first book they were featured in, and my love for them has only grown with the addition of the new members. For a Sherlock Holmes nerd such as myself, there is the added bonus of all the Arthur Conan Doyle references. I loved the suspense, the little clues that stand out on the page like 'remember this odd tidbit, it might be important down the road'. The clandestine meetings and secret society lingo, who among us hasn't hoped a secret door would open when we moved some dusty books? And Sloane? What a powerhouse and perfect match for our seriously in need of a good time esteemed boss man Abe! The chemistry between them was palpable and more delicious with every turn of the page! I loved this immensely and am so sad to see them go!

Abe is my kind of man when I fantasized about James Bond type of hero. Abe is even better that James Bond. He is sweet, smart and older. He makes me like older man. An educated man. Mature and sexy.
Miss Nolan done a good job bringing In the Clear into sexy, lingering sexy romance story.
I am slowly looking forward for more books from Miss Nolan. She is very talented writer. So far I enjoy her Codex series. It is also refreshing to put a romance story in the background of rare books. And the plot is interesting. Miss Nolan done her research well.
Sloane is also a kick ass heroine. She has back bone and hold her own wit with her sassy, smart mouth. The sexy scenes are very sexy.
