Follow her in each story which can be read in one sitting.
Satisfying end to a great little mini series. This series has been an absolute joy to read. I was only slightly surprised by the ending but it was really fun and suspenseful watching it all come together. It was also nice to watch Agent Tina James grow and change throughout the series becoming a stronger but also softer and more open version of herself.
In Hunt the Judge, book five and the series finale of A Boarding Case Mystery, Agent Tina James continues her search for her friend Nick, not knowing if he is involved in her investigation or not. The investigation moves forward as she continues working with Principal Amy to figure out who is responsible for pushing young girls to suicide.
The case leads them to the luxurious Marble House where they are separated. Tina ends up on a secret floor where a surprise awaits. This takes her to the observatory, the highest building in town. This is where the mystery ends. I don’t want to give anything away.
Hunt the Judge was a quick read and I was ready to learn who was responsible for the suicides and why. I had a general idea of who it was, but was also surprised at the ending. I do think that some of the clues that popped into Agent Tina’s head came out of nowhere. This seemed odd and was a bit of an irritation for me. It seemed more like a psychic ability as opposed to investigative skill. It did mention that clues called to her, so perhaps it was more of a psychic skill.
If you enjoy short mysteries, this series fits the bill. You can read each one in an evening, and continue with the next book when you have the time. Since each book is a short story, I didn’t feel like there was as much detail in the investigation compared to full novels. I like to get into the investigation a bit more when I read a mystery. All in all, Hunt the Judge is an uncomplicated mystery with a surprise ending. I always love surprise endings! Read more book reviews at latishaslowkeylife.com
I received an ecopy in exchange of an honest review.
First of all... Seltzer. I see it on tv a lot! What even is it?! Just flavoured water?! Why is it in a can?!
Secret floors would be nice. Can you imagine a secret floor that leads to a library?! I would freaking love that!
Nick isn’t bad! Yay! Omg, I was so worried!
Not Charlie! Awww, I love him! I don’t want him to be bad.
Scaring Tina by not being by the window. Genius! Although, I would hate if someone did that to me. Then he said he wanted to save her so... I’d be 50/50 on liking it and hating it. Lol xD
Awww, I feel sorry for Charlie. His story tho. 😔 So sad. Amy is his step-mum! So obvious when he started talking.
Why would you wanna get married at a school? Like why? I don’t understand! No one can love school that much!
I had no clue who the bad guys were going to be. Had me guessing until the end!
Anyway, this was 5 stars too! Loved it! What a great ending to a great series! Well done on another amazing series by the way!

In the finale to the series, Agent Tina James is on the trail of a devious killer who has taken the lives of young girls and has no qualms about doing it again. The murderer, knowing that she is onto them, sets a trap that might end Agent James' career and life.
But Tina must first find the kidnapped chaplain. Or was he? All she knows is Nick has disappeared, and she's in a rush to find him before he's killed. She's sure he's not involved, but where could he be? She needs to use all her wits and follow clues if she's to find him alive...
As I mentioned above, this is the finale to the Boarding Case Mysteries, and it ends the series nicely, with questions answered and a murderer apprehended (as we know they must be, after all). What follows is a solid ending to the series, and one worth reading. I enjoyed it highly and recommend it to others.
I received an advance copy from the author but this in no way influenced my review.
The 5th and final book in this series. Agent Tina James is on the trail of a devious killer who took the lives of young girls by making them commit suicide and has no qualms about letting it happen again. The killer, knowing she's on to him / her, sets a trap that could end Agent James' career and life. Meanwhile, she must first find Nick, who has suddenly disappeared, before he is murdered. She's sure he's not involved, but where can he be? She must use all her wits and follow clues to find him alive ... This is a nice finale to the Boarding Case Mysteries. Really liked the fact that Jessie's detective agency was briefly named in the "Behind the Crime" series. Read this last amazingly story and you will know how it's ends I really enjoyed it and recommend it to others.
I received a copy from the author in advance for an honest review.

This is the last book in a great little mini series. I have really enjoyed reading this series of 5 books. It was great watching Agent Tina James solve several murders in the series and fall in love with the school Chaplin at the same time. The boarding school has been through several murders and Tina has been there since the beginning. The characters are very interesting and the twists and turns keep coming. Definitely a good little read!
An enjoyable end to this series. I suspected some of the twist ending, but the full reveal was not as convincing as some of the author's other stories. It is still a face-paced, quick read, clean mystery series. I liked that there was more investigation in this series than in others. It felt like there were more puzzle pieces this time. I liked the little nod to the previous series too :)
I received this as an arc copy for free, and am leaving my review voluntarily.
This was a fine way to end the series. I never suspected who the killer was until close to the end. As always, this book in the series was well written, full of action, and included a bit of romance. I also liked the way the author told us what was going on with the characters after all the upheaval of the mystery.
Good ending I did not see coming! Reviewed in the United States on January 21, 2021 I really enjoyed this story and found it a very easy read. The suspense that escalated during each previous story is finally bursting at the seams and explodes in the big finale. Great characters, plenty of twists, and an awesome story! Well done! I received an ARC and this is my honest opinion.
Kind of let down with this book. Maybe its the time between stories but this didn't have the feelings I expected. There was a twist i didn't expect but it wasn't enough to engage me. Hoping Ms. Greene's next stories get back to previous standards.
I received this ebook in exchange for an honest review. I enjoyed this book. I was surprised by who the killer was. I would recommend this book. I enjoyed the drama.
Intriguing beginning, more than unexpected end. Very interesting mini-series, all of them keep your tension and desire to guess, keep your interest until the end. “Hunt the Judge” is the exciting final book of the all series “A Boarding Case Mystery”.
Tense moments while Tina looks for Nick. Is he a good guy or is he responsible for evil doings? The last installment in this gripping series answers all our questions but not without the riveting scenes we have come to know. Recommended.
