"This was the final book in the series and I was sad to leave the characters but it was a great read. You can definitely tell a lot of the situations are fictional, even for this plot, but still a fun series to read. I truly enjoyed the fresh take on the murderers that were and weren't caught in the infancy of pathology and criminal studies. "

"The best finale we possibly could’ve gotten, full from cover to cover with intrigue, banter, heartbreak, thrill and romance. I adore Audrey Rose and Thomas and their friends. Also, this is the first book that has ever—and I do mean ever—made me cry. 🥺💛"

"”Despite the plummeting temperature in our carriage I felt the sudden need to fan myself. He pulled his attention back up to mine, lips quirked upward. ‘Perhaps you'll be the one getting me warm. I'm not opposed to either scenario, really. Ladies' choice.’ My cheeks pinked. ‘Scoundrel.’" thank god this book was good after that last one. the actually element of the first book was back & made this book so good!! something i noticed is the back of these books always like spoil the book in a way…. which is why i was able to predict what happened but it was still good nonetheless!! (btw there was a quote about the clouds being pregnant and giving birth to rain????? that made me laugh)"

"4.5/5!! plot was kind of lacking imo but it was definitely really captivating towards the end, although i did figure out the killer again which made the realization less anticipating than i would’ve liked, HOWEVER cressworth has absolutely rotted my brain. kerri u are so sick for part 1 that’s all i have to say."

"I’ve only read this series I honestly couldn’t say if I liked this one more than the others I really enjoyed them all. They didn’t rock my world or anything but they were worth the read. "
