Yes yes yes. The best of the bunch. I LOVED these novels and so sorry they’re over with this last one.
Our snappy sarky good-hearted Charlie finds himself in the middle of a clandestine investigation that for once doesn’t make him the criminal (does it?), but it does thrust him into an altogether more shocking situation—being the eyewitness to a grisly murder. The twists and punches are plentiful and unexpected, and Charlie never loses his wicked sense of humour.
But that ending…
Chris Ewan trying to kill me with that ending. Took me hours to work through it, and eventually I think I’ll get over it…but maybe not.
