About this listen

They say love makes fools of us all. It certainly makes idiots out of some of us.

It’s Dash’s second Halloween in Hastings Rock, and this year, he’s determined to have a normal spooky season—he’s going to hang out with his friends, hand out lots of candy, and seize every available opportunity for snuggles with a certain deputy.

Fate, though, has other things in store.

When Dash’s friend Keme is arrested for murder, Dash assumes it’s a misunderstanding—after all, this is Keme we’re talking about. But it turns out, not everyone in Hastings Rock trusts Keme. Or likes him. In fact, plenty of people are downright afraid of him, and for them, the arrest confirms what they’ve always suspected: that Keme is a seriously bad apple. And when Keme’s clothes turn up not far from the scene of the crime, covered in the victim’s blood, it’s the final piece of proof for the court of public opinion.

It'll be up to Dash to prove Keme’s innocence.

But the real killer might have something to say about that.

Starting the Spotlight on the Last Picks books with Keme?! Loved every minute of it.

This one is going to hurt in a different way than the previous one. Bobby and Dash are so solid and absolutely in love and Dash is finally (mostly) out of his own way on that front. So some might worry that there wouldn't be much in the way of trauma and tension now that the relationship has reached it's happily ever after. Fear not! We still have the rest of the Last Picks to see through to make they're all squared away and happy. Dash's anxiety wont let him leave anyone he loves unhappy. Unfortunately, Keme is really going through it and he's not used to Dash's extreme brand of care. And it hurts to read! These two are brothers and they need to figure it out because nobody else is going to be there for them the same way! Luckily, we get a new type of HEA, the bro HEA and I was just so here for it.

Oh right, the mystery. Look, I always just am tickled by the little nods and direct references to famous mysteries. Honestly, it often makes me want to pick them up. For once, I knew the answer fairly early on, but it was just pure dumb luck. It's much more fun to follow along as Dash lays out the clues for you. Maybe you can be the one to explain it to him next time he tries to explain what happened.

I really enjoy the 'Last Picks' stories and this one did not fail. We find out more about Keme in this story, the recalcitrant little teenager.

I very much enjoyed how Dash and Keme's relationship developed, it was very touching.

The mystery was satisfying in all the right ways.

I prefer to consume my books in audio format and whether or not I find them enjoyable or not depends on the narrator and this narrator is top tier. I completely lost myself in this book.

A lovely cosy mystery
