Customer Reviews

Hazel does it again!

It is good to see that Hazel has risen in life after the last awful case finding Mia and shutting down the Dionysus Club. She has a bigger office, more employees (including the ever helpful Kenny and new hires Momo and Mary) and has found a good man that she loves (Jack, a rising politician running for Mayor who is also madly in love with her and is so sweet!). Hazel really is a great detective for solving cases within a short time and time is against her once again to find out who killed a friendly priest she knows. She is also so tough and that is a good things because the serial killer sending out those red letters will throw everything at her and keep killing the victims that fit the crimes. There are so many twists and red herrings that kept me reading long past when I should have stopped. I really feel for her and absolutely love Hazel and would definitely hire her to find missing people or solving murder cases with a tight deadline. This is a great series and I wish Hazel and Kenny and the others the very best and will happily keep reading their further cases! Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for the chance to read and review this great book in an edge of your seat thrilling series!
