A very quick read. It's by no means a must read, but I enjoyed it for what it was.

It wasn’t the best book, it was an audiobook listen and I was glad to have it done with. The story moved fast enough but I like when there is some suspense in discovering the killer

Great book for someone who is starting out in the world of mystery and crime but quite boring to an avid crime reader. There is a lot of talking about the fact the the MC is a retired FBI agent and stuff.

Blake Pierce writes several different mystery/thriller series and this new to me series did not let me down. However, there are a few things that are somewhat unbelievable that occur as part of the police and FBI investigation. I also felt that the ending should have been extended to include more of the interrogation and evidence collection. There were a few editing problems in the kindle version that I read.
Overall, the plot was good. The book did start a little slowly, but it ramped up speed as the story evolved. The slow start did give me a better feel for the main character before the action started.
I believe this book gave extra background information on Kate Wise as a set up for the rest of the series. Overall, I enjoyed the novel and look forward to reading the next one.
