Kate's Case Files #6
Kate's Informant
Kate and the team head to Maine to assess the possibility of a terrorist cell operating near a college campus. She has to help decide whom to trust, who’s a danger, and who’s just spouting empty threats. Of course, things are never as easy as they look, including the battles she’s facing in her own heart.
Struggling to untangle the threads of this case, Patrick finds his personal feelings clouding his judgment. With the stakes so high, he can’t get it wrong. But when the case takes a sudden turn, he knows he and the team will never be the same.

5 stars & 5/10 hearts. What a ride. I knew something big would happen and I had my suspicions, but I was still surprised!
As always, the characters were the best. Patrick gets better and better, and Kate made an adorable little Casey. I’m still rooting for Kim to loosen up, and I just can’t get over Logan’s cute little storyline. 😉 As for Thomas—I’m just hoping so hard for his imminent redemption!!
This was once more a terrorist/bomb threat plot, but I enjoyed it a lot. The villain was a completely shocker to me and the twist at the end completely unexpected. But I loved how it worked out and how it fit in with the series, and I thought it was pretty realistic too.
The theme was, as usual, epic: God knows best, and everything works out for the best. I loved the little side theme that can’t be mentioned for spoilers, either. 😉
In short—a great book 6, and I’m soooo excited for the next one!!!
A Favourite Quote: It would be good because God was good and He would use this for good. It would be good because God had a purpose, even when she couldn’t see it.
A Favourite Humorous Quote: Thomas cleared his throat. “Brian, you’re going to play the part of a college dropout, a bum, a purposeless nobody who has just arrived to Orono.”
“And with cutting words like that,” Brian said, putting a hand to his head, “I’ll have very low self-esteem when I get there.”
Thomas let out a short, frustrated sigh. “We’re hoping we can eventually introduce you as a very tempting person for Phil to recruit.”
“A purposeless nobody one day, a terrorist on a mission the next.” Brian rubbed his smooth chin. “Such an upgrade.”

It's been a bit since the last book, so I was over the moon excited for this one! I just completed my collection of the first five in paperback, and I can't wait to add this one to the shelves. ❤️
I slipped back in easily to this world and the characters, and any important details I forgot were included seamlessly. The team was quite lovable, as always. I enjoyed the further character development of Brian and Logan especially, and my boys Thomas and Patrick have some big things to work through. I'm looking forward to seeing what shakes out with Kim too.
Kate was so great undercover in this one! She's getting to be quite the natural. 👏👏 I've heard there's ten books confirmed for the series in all (??), so I'm very excited to see where the story continues to take her.
This book had even more gravity and emotional depth than I've previously seen from the author, and I could feel that she poured her heart into it. I especially loved how the characters and readers were given space to feel the impact of some pretty big changes. Definitely good writing there. 😭👏

Maybe, this time, evil had won.
CW: terrorism, injuries (some descriptions of blood, not detailed), death. A nuanced discussion of Islamophobia.
Altogether, I will be reading book 7 the very second it comes out, because #cliffhanger 😳

I have no idea how to review this. When I first finished it, I was VERY upset about it. Still am. But at the same time, I loved it.
Starting it, I knew something was going to happen. I'd seen enough reviews to know that it wasn't something good, either. And so I was extremely nervous. And keeping my eyes out for anything that would give me a hint. Did I guess the truth? Not exactly. Bad as it was, there were several times when I honestly was preparing myself for worse. And I went through all the options I could think of. If it had been worse, I probably would have hated this book because this is about as bad as I can take. But somehow, even through all that, I managed to really love the story and even (never thought I'd say this) the aftermath and the ending. I would have probably liked it a whole lot more if the next book was already out and I didn't have to wait for it, but still ;P
So, the book itself up to that point? It was really, really good. There was great continuity from the last book, on all aspects. Kim - I had expected it all to be at least partially resolved by the time this one started or to get resolved very quickly, but I liked it even better this way as it's more realistic. Logan - I really liked the continuation of her story from last time. I love how Brian helped both Kate and Logan as well as Patrick in this one.
The mystery was...well, extremely unexpected. The answer took me completely by surprise. There were some things that were never cleared up, but I only really realised that after I was finished.
The cliffhanger ending left me wishing I had the next book. In just a few chapters, everything about the series has been turned upside down, and I really really hope there's a (partially) happy ending for all this!
There's so much more I could say - about Thomas, and Patrick, and what this means for them. About Kate, and what this means for HER. About the aftermath, which was actually so beautiful in places even though it was so heartbreaking. And that was really the whole book - in many ways depressing, towards the end, but at the same time full of hope. The writing is beautiful, and what happens and all that follows is extremely beautifully written and moving. And that's why, even though I'm disappointed and have to still ask why, I still loved the book. And I still love the series. And I can't wait to continue it, even if it will never be the same again.

2023 review: I just finished reading this whole series out loud to my siblings after loving it last year. We had such a good time reading it together!!
2022 review: Oh my. How. How do I even begin to review this book? This was so good, and sooo sad. It's been a while since I cried this hard over a book, and I cried multiple times in the last section. *cries just thinking about it* Let's just say there are some surprises, but it's hard to talk about without giving spoilers. Please don't read any of the spoilers in here if you haven't yet read the book. XD I guess I'll just list out my thoughts....
1. Patrick is literally the sweetest thing when it comes to protecting Kate!
2. Brian and Patrick's bantering is so cute. xD Laughs and cries
3. I LOVE Thomas a lot in this one! I feel so sad for him. I so hope he comes around someday.

I had been looking forward to the release of Kate's Informant for a while, and so of course I downloaded it onto my Kindle almost first thing yesterday morning and had it finished by early afternoon. I think this is the author's most well-written, heartfelt Kate's Case Files book so far. At some moments while reading I smiled, and at others I ached for the characters and what they were going through. That "sudden turn" in the case mentioned in the back cover summary caught me completely off guard and tore me up on the inside.
I give this book 5 stars, although that cliffhanger of an ending leaves me desperate to know more! I can't wait for the release of the next installment in the series. Praying for the author as she writes it, that God may bless her with inspiration and the words He wants her to write, and that this series will continue to bring Him glory and point readers' hearts back to Him <3

This book would have broken my heart if it had been any other time, but as life is, this book was like a comforting friend. I laughed, I ached, I sobbed, and at the end I was filled with a hope that I couldn't begin to find on my own.
People may put down this book for being sad, but its books like this that make the dark days seem less lonely. They make the hard issues seem like there is an answer, and there is hope even on the darkest days.
This book completely blows the rest out of the water. I can't wait to see what happens next but more then anything I am proud to know an author who will write hard things that help so much.

4.5⭐️
I’m currently at a loss for words. I have been eagerly awaiting this book since I finished book 5 last year, and it didn’t disappoint, but what an emotional rollercoaster ride this was!
This just might be my favourite book in the series yet! Why? The banter was spot on. I laughed out loud a dozen times. Also, the emotional punch in this one…yeah, I rarely cry over books, but this one got to me.
The characters in this series are just the best. I love the bantering and the interactions between the team members. There was just so many sweet and comical moments…Logan’s argument with her boyfriend, Patrick being super protective of Kate and Logan, Thomas’s sarcasm, and then Brian’s wisdom and big brother advice for Logan and Kate.
I love how the faith aspects are natural and unforced. Christian characters pray and share the gospel, a biblical discussion on romantic relationships, and the reminder of the Christian hope we hold. It was very well done.
Okay, without giving away spoilers, there was a major curveball at 75%, and I kid you not, my jaw hit the ground. I had to reread the section because I thought I was dreaming. Nope. I. Was. Not. Dreaming. I was in no way, shape, or form ready for what happened, and I don’t mind admitting I cried a few times during the last 25% of the book, which is rare for me. I understand why it happened and its purpose, but that didn’t stop it from breaking my heart. It’s going to take me a while to recover…actually, I’m not sure I totally will. *sighs*
Now I feel the need to go back and reread the other books! Looking forward to continuing the series!!!

It’s been a few years since I’d read book 5. This book did not disappoint. This is a series I’d hand to any teen.
There were a lot of things I couldn’t predict in this book, in all the good ways. It may have ripped my heart out. But the discussions and spiritual themes were very good.
Now I’m all the more eager to read the next book in the series.

I’m not even sure how to write this review.
I’ve really enjoyed all the other books in this series and have been looking forward to this book for a long time. However, this book ruined the entire series for me. I do NOT like books that do what this one did! I read books to be encouraged and to enjoy the story. If I had wanted to read about this sort of thing, I would have just read the news. And the ending left me sad, frustrated, and depressed. Things didn’t end, story lines were left dangling, issues weren’t resolved, and some things in the book were never mentioned again leaving me to wonder what happened to them. I hate feeling this way after reading a book I’ve been so looking forward to. Yes, the author did handle some things well, but it could all have been avoided if the characters had been acting like they usually do. All of them seemed “off” on this one and I could have told them what was wrong, but they didn’t listen to me.
I doubt I’ll be reading this book again, and while I plan to read the next book when it comes out (I need resolution!), it won’t be able to fix what happened or redeem this one.
I wish it had been different and I could have given it a better review.

The first three-quarters of this book I absolutely ADORED! I think it was the funnest Kate’s Case Files book yet. The bantering dialogue was delightful and spot-on, which is always my FAVORITE about these books, along with the fun team of characters! I love all of them, and the character interactions are the best—and like I said, I think all of that was the best so far in this one!
So yes, I really, really enjoyed most of the book! It made me SO happy to be back in this series, which I like to think of as a crime show, just clean and in book series format; what’s not to love? The mysteries and characters and dialogue are the best and keep me flipping the pages in each book, especially this one!
I highlighted so many hilarious moments in my Kindle copy. XD SO. MANY! This cast is just gold! XD I stayed up late to finish reading it, and I had only meant to read the first few chapters that night, but I couldn’t stop and next thing I knew, the book was over!
I…will say that I was super upset about something that happened near the end. I literally spent the last quarter of the book in denial and it was only in the last few pages I realized it was real and I could hardly read I was crying so hard. It hit especially hard due to some stuff in my life this last year and the aftermath of the book was that I was so sad I couldn’t sleep and just listened to music in the dark for hours instead. So yeah, not gonna lie, it was devastating. I was shocked.
So, personally, I knocked a star off for that—even though the rest of the book was probably my favorite so far (so many good character moments!)—but that’s not to say others won’t enjoy the book! Because, yeah, it may just be a me-thing. I personally read for enjoyment, not for feels, and the first three-quarters of the book was definitely enjoyable! ^_^ But the last quarter just hit me so hard (and I haven’t been able to read new books since, except for work, so I’ve been re-reading comfort reads so I know what’s going to happen, haha). It made me feel deeply, because it got me SO invested in these characters. Which is clearly a testament to the author’s skills.
I definitely had to wait a few months to recover from these feelings (which I have mostly done) before I could write a fair review. XD Because…yes, in fairness, I LOVED the rest of the book, and I actually super suspect good things will come out of this tragic happenstance, so I’m definitely looking forward to future books in the series! I think they’re going to be amazing and I can’t wait to come back to hang out with (most of… *sobs*) these characters again. ^_^

Well, I finally caught up in the series. I was a bit hesitant to start this book, as I knew something big happened in it. But I usually lean towards trusting the author’s judgment, so I jumped in. And I still trust the author, even after reading it. Yes, something happens, but I suspect there’s a reason it’s in the story, and I even have strong suspicions as to what that reason might be.
The storyline and characters were good. Each character becomes more and more lovable every book! The ending was a bit abrupt as it seemed to stop in the middle of a story without wrapping things up. But the beginning and middle were great.
The one thing that bothered me was that the characters didn’t do due diligence in a certain area. Mild concerns they had were never really expressed or acted upon, and never were things questioned they ought to have been. Things were just blindly accepted as reliable, and that bugged me. Especially since I knew right away where it would lead… I had to stop reading at one point because I just knew what characters were going to do and it wasn’t investigating things that absolutely needed to be, trust or no trust.
Still, I get that HAD they investigated/double checked, the rest of the plot wouldn’t have happened. And the explanation of WHY they were blinded in that instance helped mitigate some of that for me. :)
Can’t wait for the next book!

Oh boy, I don’t know how to review this book…
I loved it, and it also broke my heart. 😭💔
I may add to my review at some point, but for now, that’s all I got without venting and dumping spoilers.
I’m loving this series, these characters, and the real life spiritual depth found in each story. I can tell the author puts a lot of heart and prayer into her writing.
And now I need to wait for the next book to come out tomorrow…⏰

I made a horrible mistake, a reader's greatest sin. I snooped! Yup, I went and looked at reviews. I hadn’t snooped on any -ANY- of the previous books. Do you know how good that is for me? That’s a miracle! But, nooooo, I had to go and blow the biggest spoiler in the series! I felt sick, and I still felt sick! I was half tempted to abandon ship and try and forget this series ever existed. However, me and God made an executive decision that I would finish this out and not run away from my fears.
I have found that I have never been so emotionally attached to characters like this before. Seriously, my mind was convinced one of my best friends had just died. I tried explaining to myself that this was a character and not a real living person. Boy, oh boy, did I not believe myself!
My thoughts? I sobbed my eyeballs out, and now they're puffy. Okay, so maybe those aren’t thoughts, but my eyes are too puffy to think coherently.
Devastation with a mix of hopeful reliance on God. That alone made me want to grow closer to Him. The faith of these characters…I was happy I read it even if it shattered my heart into a million pieces. This is by far my favorite series of all time.
I have found that I have never been so emotionally attached to characters like this before. Seriously, my mind was convinced one of my best friends had just died. I tried explaining to myself that this was a character and not a real living person. Boy, oh boy, did I not believe myself!

I liked this one for a long time...until the ending.
First of all, I hate the entire reason the ending had to happen. Secondly, I'm hoping there's another book coming in this series because if not, the ending has way too many loose threads.
All of that said, this book kept me guessing and I liked that. And I really hope we get to see Logan again!
