Oh my so sad to see this series end! I thoroughly enjoyed it!

Agents Eddison, Hanoverian, Ramirez and Sterling are back, back, back again. This time a young girl goes missing. Unfortunately she looks alot like Agent Sterling, blonde hair and blue eyes. It's also a difficult time for Eddison as his younger sister Faith went missing when he was just a teen, she also had blonde hair and blue eyes.

The team get together with some other agents and they realise there has been lots of abductions of little girls dating back to the 80s, all of the girls all have blonde hair and blue eyes.

After Eddison gets some photos from just before his sister disappeared he let's the team look through them to see if anything stands out. Turns out there is someone who is watching Faith, Eddison recognises him as Mr Davies who lived near him when he was a teen. After some digging into records it turns out Mr Davies lived near all of the missing girls.

Together the team work together a d piece together dates and places to work out where each and every girl is buried. They find all of them and yhe families get peace.

I throughly enjoyed this last book in the series. It was absolutely wonderful.

This picks up nicely from Red Dragon. Again Thomas Harris is an exceptional author. I love this storyline again and I like how he brings in Clarice Starling as she is mentioned in the end of Red Dragon. Fantastic.

Wow, Wow, just WOW! This book is fantastically written. I was on the edge of my seat reading this book; it felt like I was watching a movie and when something unexpected happens it draws you in even more. Just when I thought I couldn't be drawn in anymore, BOOM! I am drawn in even more. I couldn't put the book down once I started, it was infectious like I had to just read a bit more. You really need to read this book!

A great book with a lot of twists. I thoroughly enjoyed this book I liked the format, the characters the intensity and the terror I had at some points. I really enjoyed it and I like how Jurassic world took parts of this book and put it to the film. Great work. Highly recommended.
Unsolved Murders: True Crime Cases Uncovered by Amber Hunt, Emily G. Thompson

It's an okay book apart from some spelling mistakes and some areas there weren't spaces before starting the next word. I would probably recommend it to someone who was just starting to get interested in true crime. I feel like it's like a starter book for a newbie rather than someone like me who is really interested in true crime. I don't like the layout of the book; however I do appreciate that there were pictures added. Although the pictures from the case stories that you talk about in the book are clumped together and mixed up in the middle of case stories. For example you started a case story about Black Dahlia and you threw in pictures from the past 8 case stories which seemed a bit weird. I would have put the pictures with the correct cases in each case rather than throwing them in there. I also I didn't like that you added websites after the case it makes it feel like a dissertation. I don't think that is needed as it makes the books seem like a Wikipedia link.
