If this had been the first Lacey Flint novel I read, honestly, I may have given it another star. The only reason I deducted is because I felt like it pulled too far away from the Flint and Joesbury storyline. But it laid some interesting groundwork that I hope will have been used in the next one.

I loved this one! The previous Lacey Flint novels have kept me guessing, and I'm always wrong. So this time, I thought outside the box and was sure I had it figured out. Wrong! I love that Bolton keeps me on my toes!

In spite of the fact that Joesbury is largely absent from this book, the Mark/Lacey storyline features more prominently than it did in Lost (or Like This, For Ever, depending which edition you read). I was really missing it in the last book so I was happy to see more of it this time around.

Finally, Thessa's character is well-written and beautifully portrayed. I fell in love with her straight away.

I've got Here Be Dragons next on my reading list and I have high hopes for it. Still, I can't wait for the next full-length novel in this series!

Wow! For such a short piece of writing, this one packs a punch!

Loose ends from A Dark and Twisted Tide are tied up, we get an insider peek at Joesbury's undercover world, and the Lacey/Mark drama is propelled massively forward.

The wait for the next installment is going to seem interminable!
