Detective Jo Fournier and her partner, Detective Bob Arnett, have their team working around the clock when several people on the staff and faculty of Oakhurst University in Massachusetts turn up dead. They know that the cases are related because of the tarot cards found in proximity to the victims. There are several immediate suspects but this spree killing may be related to some sort of vigilantism or is it revenge? NO SPOILERS
This is the second book I've read featuring Jo Fournier and it was every bit as fast-paced and entertaining as the first. I like the writing and the characters as the focus is mainly on the case investigation but we also learn a bit more about Jo's personal life. Jo loves her job and has come a long way back from a tragedy in her past and is good at what she does. The camaraderie on the team is evident and they work well together. The motives and complexity of the murders were explained from the point of view of the killer in various chapters but all is revealed in the conclusion. There were a couple of surprises along the way as well. I'm looking forward to the next installment!
Thank you to NetGalley and Bookouture for this e-book ARC to read and review.
