dark mysterious

5.0

 Such a great mystery! I had not read the earlier books, and was able to easily pick up everything I needed to know to follow this one. However, some of the past events sounds interesting, so I plan to go back and catch up!

Callie is a great main character. Her personality is detailed and imperfect, and her back story provides reasons for the way she is. I found her realistic and relatable. She's also an excellent sleuth! I liked her methodical research methods, and the way she tracked down clues and traced similarities between her current case and her own (very personal cold case).

Once the ending is revealed, everything makes sense and seems logical. I liked the author's unique twist on the cozy mystery genre, and look forward to her future books!
