Thoughts

This was such a tense read from start to finish, knowing that one of our own was in danger the entire time. There was another crime somewhere, in the background, but none of that seemed to matter and I was fully focused on getting Denise back safe and sound. It was an adventure, and great to see how these events have an impact on our main characters. Be interesting to see if that is an end of it, or I’m having Sherlock vibes with the waterfall and everything.

Rating: 5 / 5
