Capturing the Devil by Kerri Maniscalco
3.0



I was a little disappointed at the end of this series. Out of all the books, this was the most predictable. Yes, there were some plot twists, but as a reader I was left already knowing it'd be resolved at some point in the story.
There were hints regarding the crime & I was able to pick up on them immediately (i.e. the poisoning scene). I also was a little disappointed the author didn't get more creative with who Jack the Ripper was. As soon as they hinted at the H.H. Holmes theory, I lost interest. I thought it would've been fun to have a unique twist in the series like when we thought Nathaniel was the killer. That was unique and original. Knowing that it was H.H. Holmes was just kind of disappointing to me.
