What I Did Like:
+The mystery itself is satisfying. There’s a lot more to it than it seems at first, making the journey to figure it out exciting.
+The ending is great. It comes together well and it leaves you with open questions to keep you intrigued in the next book.
Who Should Read This One:
-Fans of the previous Harney books, who maybe did enjoy the comedy routines sprinkled in. Not sure if this one's for you? Try Black Book first. Actually, Black Book was GREAT. Just don’t bother with the rest of the series unless you really like Harney because the rest of the cast becomes only minor characters after that one.
My Rating: 2 Stars
For me, the comedy routines and the lack of a character I actually liked make this one problematic.

Another fantastic read from the Billy Harney series. I found myself turning page after page racing to the end of the story to get the justice I wanted!
I'll look forward to the next book after that ending.

A little slow to start, a bit predictable at times, but overall a fast and easy read. Enjoyable.
