Where have I been? Obviously, living under a rock. This is the first time I am discovering this author and this series. I am a fan of the dark murder mysteries. As I stated, I am knew to this series. However, I am already a fan of Karen Vail. She is one tough cookie.

There was no surprise as to who Karen was chasing after Roscoe Lee Marcks. Yet, I found Marcks to be a good adversary to Karen. There was a good balance of dialect and storyline to keep the story moving along at a good, steady pace. I kind of did not connect all of the dots. So you could say I was surprised by the twist. A good ending to a good story.
