Where’s the ending? Are there chapters missing in this ARC? It’ll be interesting to see when the actual book comes out if there was a mistake because the end is abrupt and not resolved.

Okay. Besides the fact that this book feels like it's missing the ending, the rest of the book was actually good. I liked the format - very small and quick chapters. It really helped the pacing and made it seem like things were happening rapidly. I don't really remember his books unfolding like this in the past - but it might just be me. It HAS been a while (and many, many books in between) since I've read the last book.

This book starts off by telling us about a murder that occurred 20 years ago. Then we jump to the present and are told that the victim's sister has terminal cancer and wants to find out and punish her sister's killer before she dies. So, she offered a $5 million dollar reward - specifically aimed at a lot of the new "True Crime" podcasters that seemed to have popped up everywhere. And boy oh boy does it create activity. These people truly do pop out of the woodwork.

Unfortunately, the killer is also paying close attention to the investigation and is a crazy psychopath so guess what that means? Yep. More murders.

I really enjoyed this new edition to the series - well, with the exception of the end. Hopefully, this was just an error and will be fixed before publication.

Thank you to NetGalley and PENGUIN GROUP Putnam | G.P. Putnam's Sons for the opportunity to read and review this ARC. The opinions above are mine and only my own. This book will be out for publication on Mar 25, 2025.

PeteF No ending, even in the published story. Even more abrupt if you listen to it, as you can't see how many pages are remaining.

That's just crazy! I seriously started looking for the missing pages thinking I had done something wrong - but nope - they weren't there. It was just odd because it was so abrupt.
Other than that, I really enjoyed the book :)
