The Witch Hunter by Max Seeck
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
**3.5-stars rounded up**
This was really good. I enjoyed it. I read the 4th-book in the series first, and then was intrigued enough to want to go back and read them all. That’s a good sign.
Jessica Niemi is an intriguing protagonist with a complex past. I knew that from the 4th-book, but this really filled in a lot of the details. Wow. She’s been through a lot, and for reasons I won’t get into here, needs to hide a lot of it from her friends and coworkers.
This mystery was cool as well. It starts when the murders in a popular author’s books start happening in real life. They seem to be random, but Niemi and the other other investigators know there has to be a connection.
I was wowed by the connection too once it was revealed. I could have never predicted it and the ties to Jessica and her life were definitely disturbing. I’m really wanting to continue with this series and have requested my library get copies of the 2nd and 3rd book.
Here’s hoping!
