Below the Bones gave us a little bit more of the creepy setting with Widow's Island and its history, which I loved! I'm very interested in this aspect of the novellas and I loved how it made itself known in this installment.
I did think the mystery plot itself was solved way too quickly? I really liked the initial set up and how it brought conflict back to Cate and made her reflect on some of her choices, but there was no tension when it came to the plot resolution. It all happened very quickly and it was more rushed than usual. I am curious to see what's to come, though, since the Sam thing was solved in the previous novella and this one didn't seem to establish another big series arc for the characters.
