Goodreads:  Framed for a murder she didn't commit... 

As one of HM Prison Holloway's most high-profile new inmates, Helen Grace has a target on her back and nowhere to hide. She has made a long list of enemies over the course of her career--some are incarcerated within these very walls. When one of Helen's fellow prisoners is found mutilated and murdered in her own locked cell, it's clear that the killer is someone on the inside. 

But time is running out for Helen as she races to expose the person who framed her, and the body count in the prison starts to climb. Helen will need to draw on all her investigative skills and instincts to catch the serial killer behind these murders and discover the truth--unless the killer finds her first.

Kritters Thoughts:  This is book 6 in a series and I will have to warn you that there could be spoilers below because book 5's story line completely informs book 6, so you at the very least would have wanted to read the book before this before you dive into this one and to be very frank, I would start at the beginning.  These books are too good to jump around in the series, you will enjoy the series so much more if you start at the beginning.


Ok.  With that warning in mind, I am going to proceed with my review which could very well have quite a few spoilers and such!

We find Helen Grace in this book in jail for the murders from the previous book in the BDSM community.  This is a completely different setting than any of the other books and having her inside the jail was so so interesting.  

Of course since Helen Grace is in a jail, there are going to be murders in the jail and she is going to have to insert herself and help solve them.  But the added security and inability for her to access information makes this book so different than the rest of the series.  I loved that she was almost handicapped, but was risking it all to try to help solve these murders of her new "friends."

I will always love and adore this series.  The murders are crazy and not for the faint of heart, but the twists and turns are oh so good!!

Rating: absolutely loved it and want a sequel
