I knew going into this book, that Riker would have more of the spotlight. I had some concerns about it, but I'm pleased to say that I loved the book despite that.

The plot was very nice and intriguing and I stayed up late to finish the book.

I do wish there could be more growth to Kathleen's character. I still like her and her mannerisms, but I would like to see her hook up with someone, preferably Charles. That would be nice, although she may end up trampling his heart even more.

This is my least liked book so far in this series.

It was nice to see Kathleen's flashbacks and learn more about life on the street.

The plot was also nice, but somewhere along the way I lost a bit of my interest. 

I think this book felt slightly more cluttered to me.

Mmm what a ride this book offered.

I absolutely loved it in all its entirety.

The plot was fascinating and very much a page turner for me. I think one of the best parts were, that Kathleen had way more face time than the previous books.

I found it a bit sad for Charles to carry the torch of unrequited love for Kathleen. Either something should happen between them or he should grow out of it. At the moment he resembles a kicked dog too much for my liking.

As for the epilogue - very wicked and one of my all time favorites.

I'm looking forward to starting the next book - I hope Kathleen will be in the front again.

It has been +1 year since my last visit to this series, so it was with some trepidation that I picked this book for my read. I don't remember there being so many POV switches - but that may very well be why I took a break from the series.

Kathleen is exactly as I remembered her. Tough, strong and very capable, although I wish that the spotlight would be more on her. And then there's Charles. He was kind and gentle in the other books and the same in this, but if he doesn't start to grow some balls soon I'll go nuts. 

It was very nice to visit Mallory's hometown and see what happened that day it all went awry. Now I just want to know more about what happened after, but before Markowitz.

I really loved this book. The plot was great, though I didn't very much liked the ending - poor Charles, he just can't seem to catch a break. I like the gory stuff and how Kathleen solves the crimes.
