This was a great read , full of mystery and awesome descriptions of the background, as usual with her books. I was a little disappointed and confused with the way the ending depicted the outcome of the struggle with the mayor. It was unclear what really happened. Not sure if this was intentional, but I’m the kind of reader who likes for endings to be “ wrapped up and done” . Nevertheless, it was a very good book- my 15th read in this series. I’m on to the next one now!
