Definitely my least favourite of the series. While I'm happy for the ending, it almost felt unnecessary in some ways for this book to exist. I get why it did, but it just didn't work well for me. Also I wanted far more of the grandmother?! She was awesome. She should have shown up in the first books.

I’m going to need a long time to recover from this series. Holy fucking shit. I did not think that when I read the first book, I would grow to love this series in the way that I have.
I’m actually convinced Audrey Rose and Thomas are soulmates. Everything their relationship went through in the last two books is proof of that. No matter how much they went through and no matter who tried to come between them, they always found themselves back together.
The amount of times I absolutely bawled my eyes out during this book was unhealthy. I thought I cried a lot when I finish the third book, but I cried so much more during this one. Happy and sad tears.No, I actually can’t do this, I just remembered their reunion at the end of chapter fifty-three.
My only criticism of this book, is that the first half of it is very focused on their relationship instead of solving the case, but I absolutely loved it until Miss Whitehall and Thomas’ dad got involved 😒.
I’m convinced Maniscalco can never give Audrey and Thomas a break.I thought this book was going to be them, finally happy together, solving a murder. NO. Something had to come between them again. And Audrey had to get so personally involved again.
The last ten chapters of the book, holy shit. That man is a true fucking psycho. He is definitely the most creepy out of the other revealed murderers in the other books. This man OPENLY admitted that he enjoyed killing and that was basically his only motive…Nah, when he thought about killing Audrey and MOANED???? Please, get away from me and seek some help, thanks xx.
I knew exactly who the killer was in this book as soon as we were introduced to him. I KNEW. It still didn’t take away from the story though, because I was never 100% certain.
THE EPILOGUE AT THE END HAD ME CRYING. They finally got their happy ending 🥲. Now, when is it my turn, huh?????? AUDREY ROSE AND THOMAS ARE SOULMATES AND I WON’T BE HEARING ARGUMENTS.
You know what I NEED now? I need a book where Audrey and Thomas solve a murder together, where nothing comes between their relationship and they are happy. That’s a NEED, not a want xx.
If this was the last book i ever read, I’d die a happy girl.
