Great story, as usual… until!

I’ve been a Jane Casey fan for years. I’ve weathered narrator changes and long spans between books. In this book, the writing is great and the plot twists perfect, as always. But that epilogue! Maeve has been to Hell and back. Ms. Casey, I ask you humbly, please let her have a win on this one.

Exceptional!!

It was more than I have anticipated! Thank you Jane for your beautiful gift of writing! I didn't want the story to end! Please write soon.

Incredible

But Jane, Why do you do this to us? Please write the next one immediately.

Best Meave Book to date

I loved the story, the relationship development between Meave and Josh and the narration. The plot line kept me riveted till the end.

Emotional

I just loved that little girl.

A great story with many twists and turns. It made me cry even. But that ending!!! Glad to hear the author’s note at the end.

Fantastic

Another amazing addition to this series. I adore Maeve and this one did not dissolve.

It’s about time!

Took a little time to get hooked into this one but once I did it was a great entry into the series, which never disappoints. I’m completely taken with these characters and can’t wait to find out what happens next. Casey left me right out on a limb here, no spoilers from me. Dream casting? Emily Blunt as Maeve, Benedict Cumberbatch as Derwent. Are you listening, movie/tv Gods?

Series is Absolutely Addictive

Jane Casey is a brilliant writer. I started this series midway but went back and read / listened to every one and loved them all. The mysteries are always interesting and complex. Throughout most we see the relationship between a young Detective Mauve and intriguing, dark Josh Derwent, her boss, develop. The 2 plots are interwoven beautifully leaving the reader wanting more. In the end of this book is a shock but Jane Casey in her end notes promises they will return in the next book. Please don’t make us wait another year!!!!

The best in the series

Absolute perfection. This one did not disappoint, great character development and twisty mystery. Everything i was hoping for! The Maeve and Josh storyline remains hypnotizing and gripping 😊🥰🥰. Love love love!

Why does the narrator sound like an old spinster it’s a book about 20 -30 something’s

I love the story but this narrator takes all the romance out of it. Jane Casey’s writing is brilliant. It deserves a better choice. The characters in these stories are very well written. The mystery is riveting. The character of Helena was drawn so vividly you almost feel sorry for her. The hapless Bruce. A figure of scorn then your mind is changed. I highly recommend Jane Casey. I do not recommend this narrator who sounds old and has a grating voice.
