This is a great mystery story. The plot is complex, the MCs and the side characters are well written, and it feels like a dark noir. It has a slow burn element BUT it is NOT really a romance. Highly recommend if you want mystery and not romance. It is very different from the Dead Serious series. **spoiler ahead**

This does not have a HEA or a HFN. The story will continue in the series so who knows but the ending was depressing for lack of a better word. I was looking for a mystery romance and I probably would not have listened to it right now if I had known it would end on such a sour note.
