My review:
Book 3 in the Spectrum Series ~ definitely readĀ The Killings BeginĀ andĀ Death in a Dark AlleyĀ first as this is a continuation of the story. The timeline begins in 2012 and ends in 2014.
Our serial killer, Tracey, is back and in action and we dive a little deeper into his and Charlotte’s life. There is a surprise that happens to them later in the book that I was pretty shocked about.
We’re introduced to new characters ~ Lee & Fong (spouses) and Remy & Frannie (cousins), and old friends ~ Sasha, Gia, Lydia, Sal make appearances. They enter into a friendship with ease as they bond about art.
We have the investigative side of things happening in Raleigh, North Carolina as a reporter and private investigators try to piece together similarities with 4 killings. I like that they are getting closer and closer to solving the mystery.
I love the extra added details of Jane’s dissertation with hand written notes, maps and menus that were pleasing to my eyes. I like how we visit different places while on the cruise too.
I’m looking forward the final book in the series that will be out later in 2023 that should wrap up the series nicely.

Book blurb:
A Body Washes Ashore is the heart-racing sequel to The Killings Begin and Death in a Dark Alley that youāve been waiting for. Bradley Payās signature blend of contemporary romance and psychological suspense will sweep you off your feet and into the thick of mortal danger. Tour Europe with Traceyās new friend, Remy Martin, as she risks everything for the rush of true love.
Traceyās new group of friends seems perfect. For as long as he could remember, he felt like an outsider, struggling to make connections, and living as an unknown serial killer certainly didnāt help. Now he and his new wife have discovered a circle of friends that begins to fill his need for close relationships. Heās one step closer to living a ānormalā life despite the persistent cold-case investigators who refuse to ignore his murderous past in the US.
Remy Martin, a renowned professor of art history and one of Traceyās new friends, also bears scars on her damaged heart. She has vowed to only sleep with married men to protect herself from heartbreak. However, the stakes rise when she breaks her biggest rule and takes things too far. But how can she resist? She never meant to fall in love or hurt anyone. Just like Tracey, though, she canāt erase her past. She must deal with the consequences of her affair, whatever the cost.
Donāt miss this landmark installation in the Spectrum Series saga, complete with the complex characters you love and a new romance youāll never forget.
