Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for my copy of this book.

When a woman is found murdered, detective Morgan Brookes and the team are called into investigate. Things get complicated when they identify the victim, who has been to prison after poisoning her son and husband years before.

Loved this. Fast paced as always, with lots of suspense and that sense of worry, that yet again Morgan is in danger. I enjoyed how this flipped to the past and gave some of the back story of the victim. I did figure out the murderer in this one, but not until later after the red herrings were proven to be just that. Highly enjoyable read. More please!

Once again the city counts on Morgan, Ben and the rest of the team to put a killer behind bars who does not shy away from getting rid of the people who they feel stand in their way to get what they believe is rightfully theirs. 

They first butter up a few people and then, when they feel the time is right, they decide to shorten their lives...

The killer is a very arrogant person, playing with the detectives. Knowing the police team, you know they will see through it eventually, but will they be able to prevent another life being snuffed out?

I had my eye on someone, but I did not know the why. Seems like I saw through that person's smoke screen and I had a great time reading on and finding out the finer details.

I love the banter between the recurring characters and they make me smile. I love how Morgan always seems to be the killer magnet. 

This is one of those series you never want to end, because it feels like it will be always too soon to say goodbye to. 5 stars

Thank you
