Rating: 3 stars.
Spice level: some explicit scenes.
Genre(s): crime, romantic suspense, novella.

Overall impression: the shorter length didn't quite pack the same punch as the longer novels. The murders happened rapidly and Dallas wasn't making much progress, even though they knew who the killer was from the start. I thought it was going to be an extension from the previous novel but the killer was someone from years before the first novel, and someone that hadn't been mentioned prior. Because of that, there was a lot of "telling" rather than "showing". We were told what he would be like and who his targets were, and all of the mystery and guess work was removed. I did like that this one was more high stakes than some of the others, with some of Dallas' close friends getting caught in the crossfire. But I was let down by the ending, where the killer made a bunch of mistakes which seemed out of character from what we'd been told and ended up getting caught without much effort.
