There was a lot going on in this book which I think made it hard to always follow along but I think the author did a really good job of tying everything together. I also really enjoyed the struggles Anita had with her relationship with Richard. It really forced her to reflect more on her beliefs and biases. I’m definitely interested in seeing where her dating life goes in the next book. The same thing can be said for her job. I appreciated watching her trying and balance between working with the police and also being a civilian where at many points she does many things that would be considered illegal.
