"For once, I think Harris ended a series well. It wasn't rushed and worked itself out. It might have worked itself out a little too well, as it connected the current case with an old case, but it left all the questions answered.<br/><br/>The only thing I found weird was that even while dating, they called each other brother and sister. They really aren't related, but I had hoped that at some point they would stop introducing each other as family and instead by professional titles (manager for Tolliver) or boyfriend/girlfriend and leaving out the relation that isn't a relation out."
"I'm kind of glad this was the last book. I felt like this book just dragged on and on until the last few chapters. <br/>It was amazing to me that the story of Carmen's disappearance turned out the way it did. I never saw that coming. I was floored. These kids (Tolliver and Harper) went through hell and back growing up. It makes sense why their relationship would develop into something more because honestly who else would have been able to deal with them with the same empathy and compassion.<br/>"
