Series: Body Finder #4
*Spoilers for earlier books in the series*
Stuck with an imprint of her own and the terrible memories of her nearly fatal kidnapping, Violet is determined to keep her ability to sense the dead hidden. But threats from her psychiatrist are making sure she stays on her special team, and her friends are making it harder than ever to keep her two worlds separate -- especially now that Rafe and Gemma are going to her school. And when she stumbles across a particularly violent murder scene, her life gets that much crazier.
I loved the story in this one, and I continue to adore the relationship between Violet and Jay. The way the mystery unfolds is, as ever, brilliant. I was less thrilled with the conclusion, though.
If there were going to be another book in the series, then I would have no trouble with the ending whatsoever. It resolved the events of this story well; the relationships, the murder mystery, the book-specific plot events, everything was tied up. But in terms of concluding the series, I just felt like there were still way too many things left unclear about Violet's team of people, especially with all of the buildup to some Big Secret via Grandma Louise's old journals. I felt like there was a secondary mystery being heavily teased that was never resolved, which would be fine if there were another book to resolve it, but with this as probably the last in the series, I feel a little unresolved.
Even so, I enjoyed the book and would recommend the series in a heartbeat to anyone who enjoys a good murder mystery.
