The series order is linear, so the latest book, 'The Close', goes at the end. I appreciate that the crimes are still grim and well-plotted, but the engine of the series is now firmly the relationship between the two leads. This book turns that engine up to eleven.

I keep a list on my phone because I read so many series. For Maeve Kerrigan, the latest entry is 'The Close', published after 'The Killing Kind'. The author doesn't seem to be slowing down, which is great news for fans of smart, character-driven crime fiction.

Honestly, I just follow the author on social media. When a new book is out, she shouts it from the rooftops. The latest shout was for 'The Close'. It's easier than trying to remember an ever-growing list.

For a series with so many books, the continuity is tight. 'The Close' references events from several books back, especially those involving key antagonists. It feels like a living world where past actions have real, lasting consequences.

The library app I use had them out of order, which was infuriating! I had to manually search. 'The Close' is listed as #10. It's worth the hunt to read them in sequence, as the character arcs are the true backbone of the series.

The Last Blackthorne Heir Returns
StaceSteele

25.4K
For seventeen years, I believed I was nothing, Iris Delta, the unwanted orphan tolerated by a pack that saw me as a burden. The Maxwell quad Alpha heirs made sure I knew my place, tormenting me with cruel words and vicious pranks. I was weak, worthless, invisible.
I was wrong about everything.
On my eighteenth birthday, Alpha Maxwell reveals the truth that changes everything: I'm Seraphina Blackthorne, the last heir of a bloodline thought extinct. My parents didn't abandon me—they were murdered by the Northern Alliance, who believed they'd eliminated every trace of Blackthorne power.
They were wrong, too.
The moment my wolf Diamond awakens, the mate bond snaps into place with the four men who made my life hell. Fin, Brent, Kane, and Liam—my tormentors are my fated mates, four pieces of one soul that can only be completed by me. Their cruelty wasn't hatred; it was a fractured soul recognising its missing piece and lashing out in fear.
But the Northern Alliance isn't finished. They've come to eliminate the last Blackthorne before I can claim my birthright. What they don't realise is that I'm not just the last heir, I'm the strongest Blackthorne born in three centuries.
When divine justice flows through my veins and ghostly wolf spirits answer my call, they'll learn what happens when you try to destroy something the goddess herself has chosen to protect.
The Blackthorne line has returned. And this time, we're not going down without a fight.

The Price of Peace is the final showdown and book three for the No Regrets crew, where the masks come off and the bills finally come due. Shane O’Brien is done playing house. He’s been living his life like a "glorified roommate" with his wife, Isla, ever since she broke their vows with her best friend's husband, but now the cold war is turning hot. While Shane finds a temporary sanctuary with Maya Cruz, Isla is weaponizing their children trying to save a marriage that might already be lost, but will she realize this too late, or burn the whole house down. Speaking of Maya, she has a few secrets of her own, one that involves Mayor Rogers and a scandal that could level the city.
In the courtroom, Crandon Morgan is fighting to keep his name clean after a very public mental meltdown. He’s looking for a comeback, but he finds a distraction in Tempest Summers, a new law junior associate with a haunted past and a hunger for a kind of justice the law books don’t cover.
Meanwhile, Kole Michaels is trapped in a different kind of nightmare. A past mistake named Akeisha is using a legal loophole to pin a child named Urmagisty on him. With his relationship with a different Keisha on the line and his daughter Mabel watching, Kole has to prove he’s being set up before the lie becomes his life.
In this game, peace isn't free, you have to pay for it in blood, truth, or with everything you own.

“Are you being nice because of the pup?” I asked. He breathed out.
“I’m sorry how I acted before, no words can justify what I did. I just want to be there for my pup,” he said.
“What about me?” I asked, looking down at the food.
“I am not promising you anything Maeve, let’s just live peacefully while taking care of the thing that joins us together, I promise to be your friend, probably a shoulder for you to lie on,” he said and immediately he said that I burst out in loud laughter.
After her family and pack died the night before her 18th birthday, Maeve is thrown into a world filled with confusion, anxiety, a world filled with guilt. Her mate rejecting the bond and getting pregnant for him. Maeve's life is an absolute mess but she will do anything to get her mate back and make him accept the bond.
What Maeve didn’t know is her life was just about to become more confusing, a world full of betrayals, unexpecting attacks, full of mysteries, will Maeve survive or will she go down just like her parents?
For a thousand years, the two most powerful families in the world of witchcraft have been at war. In a bid to end the violence once and for all, they arrange a union between their children, Tessa and Rafik.
At a dinner party meant to finalize the marriage negotiations, the ancient feud comes to a bloody end.

Sparks fly between these star crossed lovers as Rafik tries his best to make amends to Tessa. Unfortunately, she isn't the only one who wants him to pay for the sins of his past.
The most miserable part about betrayal is that it never comes from your enemies, but they’re all about to discover what a wicked witch Tessa can be.
Queen of Ruin is the first book in the Queen of Ruin Series. In this Dark Paranormal Romance and Fantasy series of stories, you’ll meet a cast of broken, but loveable creatures trying their best to save the world.
Get Queen of Ruin today and run away with Tessa on her fiery journey through the depths of darkness.
What's interesting is how the crimes themselves reflect Maeve's evolving perspective. Early cases, while gruesome, are more detached professionally. Later, the violence feels like it's creeping closer to her own life.
That narrative tightening—the world getting smaller and more dangerous—is a structural choice you only feel in order. It builds a fantastic sense of dread and investment. You're not just solving a mystery; you're walking a path that gets narrower and more treacherous with her.
I'd say you can get away with it. The central investigation is always front and center and wrapped up neatly. The ongoing stuff is more like rewarding bonus content for loyal readers. If you don't mind missing some inside jokes or not fully understanding every historical reference between characters, jump in anywhere.
Her taste in cases changes, or rather, what she brings to them does. Initially, she might be assigned to anything. Later, you get the sense that certain types of cases—those involving vulnerable women, complex familial crimes—are drawn to her or she to them, because she's developed a reputation for understanding them. She becomes a specialist by experience, not by assignment. Colleagues might bring her in on a case because 'Maeve's good with this stuff.' That shift from a generalist to a sought-after expert based on her accumulated wisdom is a huge marker of her development within the force.
Nine, with a tenth hopefully on the way soon! The wait between books is agony, but it's always worth it. Casey's plots are so tightly constructed. She plays fair with clues, but the twists still surprise me. I also appreciate that the series tackles contemporary issues—misogyny in the workplace, institutional failure, media scrutiny of police—without ever feeling like a lecture. It's woven into the fabric of the stories because it's part of Maeve's reality as a woman in the Met. It feels organic and adds to the tension and stakes.
