BevS's Reviews > A Friend in the Fire

4.5 stars from me. Once again, Rufus and Sam do a much better job than the boys in blue of the NYPD in tracking down the murderer/s of sex workers, both past and present...one of whom unfortunately was Rufus's mum. There are many threads in this read, and lots of characters to remember cos you can be certain they'll pop up somewhere else in the story. [Question...at the start of this story, Sam seems to be in Wahredua for some weirdly unexplained reason, and of course visits the Pretty Pretty where Nico is still shaking his booty in those shorts of his, and stalking H & S? What's all that about? 👀👀].

There is a HUGE background storyline yet to be aired insofar as Sam's 'departure' from the Army is concerned, and regardless of whether or not he wants Rufus to discover why he left the Army, surely the truth will come out eventually? Will they both still feel the same about each other when it does? Hopefully the answer will be yes, as they seem well suited.

Would love to find out whether the higher-ups in the trafficking ring from A Friend in the Dark were ever found and are to be prosecuted?
