Rag and Bone (Henry Rios Mysteries)
This last novel in Nava's Henry Rios series makes you happy in the way it closes the series and makes you a little sad that Nava won't write about Henry's life no more. The plot is a bit iffy, borders a bit too much on the family side of things. Everything is tied up in a neat bow at the end, kinda. Because, well, it's a little too neat for my taste. But... Henry does find solace. If only for that, for John that comes into Henry's life at the right moment, at the right time, for them to go forward and be happy. Not joy-joy happy-happy, this is Henry Rios but the hug you at night when it's cold outside and I just need to be held kind of happy. Just because of that I don't want another book. If I want more there's always fic. *g*
