Review

The main thing I want to leave you with is the fact that you will not be disappointed in this novel. I was so happy I found this novel and this series in general. If you are a fan of Mystery novels you will absolutely love each installment. 

Blair Howard has created a series in which each story builds upon the last yet you dont need to have read all of them to understand. Each is a new Mystery. But believe me when I say you will want to read them all.
