The Book Of Cold Cases packs a punch that I never expected. When I picked this up I knew that I was going to fall hard when the story really started. In Simone St. James fashion, she did the damn thing.
I have been a Simone stan for the last few books and I knew I couldn't not read this. And I was right. It was fantastic. I loved how well the characters were well fleshed out and really brought them to life. Simone covered an aspect of crimes that some people won't and she covered it well. These characters brought so much to life, whether it was the storyline or just the feeling you have while reading.
I was constantly questioning what was real and what wasn't. Whether it be from Beth's life or Shaes with many circumstances. But it was the best guessing I have had in a while. And I cannot say enough good things about this book.
Do yourself a favor and pick it up!!!
