Every Kind of Wicked by Lisa Black Book Review



Leave it to me to read book 6 of 6 in this series. I found myself really enjoying the characters of Maggie and Jack.

Having never ‘met’ Maggie and Jack before, I was taken by their relationship, one based on something that happened to Maggie … something Jack did that neither one could forget or talk about. Enter Maggie’s ex-husband Rick who wanted nothing more than to figure out Jack’s real motives. There are a couple of other police folks in the mix since this is what I would consider a police procedural.

There are crimes involving the worst of the worst and some telephone scams that Shanaya had a hand in.

What I especially enjoyed about this author’s writing is the sense of humor that came through, even in the worst of times. I also enjoyed Maggie’s inner dialogue which seemed to be spot in, not to mention her thoughts surrounding Jack, especially near the end of this tale. I also enjoyed that there was essentially more than one story spread throughout these pages, keeping my interest.

Having not read the other 5 books in this series, I have to wonder if there will be more to Maggie and Jack’s story. Certainly this can’t be the end when they are seemingly just now figuring things out between the two of them.
