A series of unfortunate happenings are wreaking havoc in Rebecca\u2019s life, and a vengeful ex is back. Leo\u2019s life is also in danger with a figure from his distant past hovering in the shadows. As Mal and Vinn begin to look into the matter, a sinister pattern emerges, threatening to destroy the peace of their lives. Thorson makes sleuth detective work exciting, fun, and flavorful. The romance between Mal and Vinn enlivens the story, and Thorson\u2019s keen insights into human psychology add depth.
