Not going to give anything away, but this felt a bit like the relative calm before the storm. It was basically all Mat, though we have a brief glimpse of the price Dougie is and will be paying for Mat's actions. (view spoiler)

A review by The Blogger Girls.
Ok, when this starts out, I honestly had to check and make sure I opened the right book. It has a totally different feel to it, and then Ty and Zane are there, and I was a little confused. But I pressed on, and it didn’t take long for things to iron themselves out.
Except then Nate gets a phone call, and my heart skipped a beat. So, Mat is found, and things go pretty much as expected. We get a tiny glimpse of what he left behind with Dougie bearing the brunt of Allen ...more

The Flesh Cartel limps along to its conclusion at some time in the future, yet again.
