Helpful Score: 2

Finally, an end to the Eve Duncan series. Enjoyable many books ago, Eve's struggles have become tiresome in the last half dozen books -- she continually pushes away Joe's love and good advice, throws herself recklessly into unnecessary danger, and won't even listen to her dead child's spirit telling her to stop looking for her bones and get on with her life. I stuck with the series only after putting in so many years of caring about these characters, even with their stilted dialogue, their increasingly annoying forays into the paranormal, and their lack of character development, so I wasn't going to give up and miss the promised resolution to the Bonnie character.

As cynical as I had become about this whole series, I was surprised to find myself moved to tears by the much-anticipated revelation of the cause of Bonnie's death and of the identity of the person responsible for her death.

It was worth reading, but it definitely is not worth picking up if you haven't read most or all of the other books in the Eve Duncan series.
