Book 3 in Iles‘ wonderful Penn Cage series. The series is set in real-life Natchez, where the author is from, and I kind of want to go there now just to see it all in person. This book was definitely not short on villains or twists and turns, and ends on a cliffhanger. I have already read books 4-6, which constitute the Natchez Burning trilogy, but now I want to read them again! 5⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Erinreadsthebooks I might have to read the first three. I've read the Natchez Burning trilogy and really liked them 6y
Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks I love his books!! 6y
LauraBeth I want to read this trilogy but the page count seems daunting! 6y
amywithbooks @LauraBeth they fly by, trust me! I couldn‘t put them down. 6y

I‘d really rather be reading but I‘ve also really got to finish Christmas shopping so I‘m off to do that. Hopefully I can find what‘s left at one store. 🤞I‘ll be back this afternoon to commune with my lovely books. Was hoping to get all these done before 2018 but it‘s not looking super promising.

Tonight‘s #booknbath is brought to you by Greg Iles. I‘m hiding from my family so I should be able to read a couple of chapters. Hopefully.

Reecaspieces Good read! ENJOY! 7y

Yowzas! Best one so far! Oh man, I can't say enough good about this book, it was that good. Even though I knew there were 3 more in the series, I was still a little hurt when it was not a perfect happy ever after for Penn. I have other reading to do so the Natchez Trilogy will have to wait until vacation on the 17th, but that will be really hard.

minkyb Worth the wait! 7y

Every time I pick up a Penn Cage book I get a little stressed about the page count. Then it flies by because they are so good! Here's to fun #summerreads

Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks Love Penn Cage!! I still have to read Mississippi Blood, but I'm procrastinating because I don't want it to end!! 7y
Reagan I have the first 2 books of the Natchez Trilogy and am very excited, but I can see where you are coming from. They are such fun books! 7y
LisaJo Penn Cage. Seriously have a crush on this character. I am not a huge lover of a very long book. But I'm OK with these cuz, well, cuz, more Penn Cage. 7y

minkyb Iles and Penn make every page count! 😁 7y
CoverToCoverGirl Fantastic book.. very raw and extremely difficult to read in parts.. Love all things Penn Cage! 7y
Reagan @LisaJo yes! I have a big time literary crush. Who do you think would play him in a movie? @minkyb there is not a bit of fat in these books. They are so well edited, every word is necessary. @CoverToCoverGirl I just hit one of those parts and had to put the book down for a bit. Yikes, this is the toughest one to read yet. 7y
CoverToCoverGirl @Reagan_reads I found it the most disturbing of them all but there is some difficult content in the ones that come next.. but so worth the read though! 😎 7y
LisaJo @Reagan-reads Oh! Never though about casting him in a movie. I tried to think of someone and nobody is matching the Penn in my brain. Hmmm! Do you have an actor in mind? 7y

So I was supposed to be running errands for my mom and obviously had to stop in at my local Barnes and Noble. Although I intended to leave empty handed, I couldn't resist buying the next book in my current favorite series especially when the staff was handing out 25% off coupons! #fate #tbr #sundayfunday #bookhaul

Not my favorite in the series, but still a descent read.
