Given ARC for my voluntary review and my honest opinion by Net Galley and
Thomas Mercer
This is the final installment of the series and it is a thrilling, dark ride full of twists and turns. We have gone on a crazy ride with Jude. Sometimes wanting to shake her, but always cheering her on. The author paints a vivid picture of not only the situations, but every aspect of the book. Everything from the cat, Jude herself, the apartment, each crime scene. And even the landscape around. The author takes you along for the ride. Such a great series. The blurb gives a concise description common so not going to repeat it. I also do not want to give away spoilers, but I highly recommend this series.
This is the third book in the Jude Fontaine series and while it can be read as a stand alone, the reader is best suited to read it as part of the series. The plot arc is much to involved to simply pick up this third book and expect to get a true appreciation of character depth. The narrative offered is compelling and offers a true representation of Frasier’s writing abilities. She is able to collectively piece together a descriptive, emotional narrative involving Minnesota Detective Jude Fontaine and her partner Uriah. Frasier blends the perfect amount of anticipation within the plot while giving the reader a few surprises along the way. Great read. 5 stars.
