A dark and twisting crime thriller
On a hot Louisiana night in the Bayou, a horrifying act of violence precipitates the destruction of a family. Under the shadow of an ancient cypress tree, a killer rises from the ashes—the omnipotent judge and executioner of the unworthy.
Ten years later, Reece Hash of the Toronto Crown attorney’s office uncovers disturbing evidence in multiple closed cases that points to homicide. As his fiancée and PI partner Samantha McNamara investigates the rape of a deluded patient at a private psychiatric hospital, Reece grows to believe that a serial killer is exacting social justice across Toronto. And there’s a sinister connection to the prestigious mental health hospital, where someone is brutally exploiting vulnerable patients.
An ominous plot of medical corruption, blackmail, and murder

The best one in the series in my opinion. Initially I was annoyed with the journal part of the book but in the end the journal turned out to be my favourite part. I'm glad I stuck with the series now. A solid 4.5 stars but making it an even 5 as the journal part really surprised me and totally made me feel all the feelings.

4.5 stars! I had to mark off a little because I has to skim some of the descriptions of the utter depravity of some of the characters - I'm just not tough enough. That being said, this is an excellent series and highly recommended to any who enjoys a good twisty tale. Ms. Fraser knows how to tell a hell of a story.

One and done
The story line is good, different. The problem, distracter is that NONE of the characters are likable. This is book x in the series and may or may not be the last one but it is the one and only book of the series I will read.
