The love interest both suck. The attorney is a child on a spring break and the cop feels sleezy and very pushy.
Them hauling a torso around town in their car somehow reads very low stakes? Why aren't they more worried wtf.. Also the ending felt like the writer wasn't sure who to blame so they just resulted in making the whole thing a senior accident. Feels lazy.

Another great book! Finn is at it again in another addition of novelist/contract killer mom Finnley. I didn't rank this as high as the first book because it seemed a tad less messy and chaotic than the first. The appeal of the first to me was that Finn was a recently divorced mom of two struggling to make ends meet and write her book while fending off her cheating ex. The mystery of the hit and the mod seemed more organic and chaotic in thought. This book seemed to have the thoughts in boxes and every trail was followed like a practiced detective who had a lot of experience. Even with Finn and Vero basically solving several murders and getting a mod boss arrested, they're still just civilians who dabbled in contact hits. It was a tad disappointing but it's still a great read!
