Laurel and Huck gets tangled up in another serial killer case involving her father. The romance between our MCs is moving slowly but steadily. They decided to give dating a go in the last book, and they now gotta maneuver their personal and professional relationships. Laurel's attempts to be less literal and read social cues are amusing and rather cute. Huck is as protective as ever, and is more obvious about showing his affection through words and actions. 

They're also a couple that talked things through and I loved that. The small intimate moments of touches and glances are 😍. The trust and support between them is super solid, and there's a surprise at the end. The murder plot disturbing and well crafted, and Laurel's sister (and father) is a terrible terrible person that needs to GTFO, despite the intriguing Holmes/Moriarty dynamic between them.
