Dark Malice is another good book by Mary Stone。 I love how she shows the distinct characteristics of her characters。 Charli continues to scrutinize those around her in a very clinical way。 Matthew， her partner， still leads with his gut instincts。 The interplay between the two continues to grow and they make a magnificent team。 The case this time revolves around a crematorium where some bodies are missing and extra ones are found。 What is going on and who is involved is what they are trying to fi Dark Malice is another good book by Mary Stone。 I love how she shows the distinct characteristics of her characters。 Charli continues to scrutinize those around her in a very clinical way。 Matthew， her partner， still leads with his gut instincts。 The interplay between the two continues to grow and they make a magnificent team。 The case this time revolves around a crematorium where some bodies are missing and extra ones are found。 What is going on and who is involved is what they are trying to figure out。 Several workers who somehow have more money then they should are missing or dead。 Did someone say， "maybe a mob hit"？ The race is on to solve the mystery before anyone else gets hurt。 I was given this ARC in exchange for my honest opinion。 4 1/2 out of 5 stars。 。。。more

DARK MALICE is the fourth installment in the Charli Cross series by Mary Stone and Donna Berdel。 This series is more of a suspenseful murder mystery than a chiller thriller， not as intense and spine chilling。 So， faint of heart you can enjoy without fear。 Both authors make a great team and amazing job capturing your attention in the first few pages of their books。 I had a hard time setting this story down for even a few minutes。Charli and her partner， Mathew， have been assigned a murder case in DARK MALICE is the fourth installment in the Charli Cross series by Mary Stone and Donna Berdel。 This series is more of a suspenseful murder mystery than a chiller thriller， not as intense and spine chilling。 So， faint of heart you can enjoy without fear。 Both authors make a great team and amazing job capturing your attention in the first few pages of their books。 I had a hard time setting this story down for even a few minutes。Charli and her partner， Mathew， have been assigned a murder case involving three missing persons at a mortuary。 During interviews， it appears none of the employees really knew each other outside of their work responsibilities。 When Charli and Mathew are tailed by a suspicious vehicle， they grab the license number that implicates a Mob Boss。 Just to add more stress for Charli she gets a couple of messages claiming to be from her friends murderer。If you haven't started yet and you enjoy a great mystery/thriller this series is for you。 The collaboration between these authors is superb。I received an ARC of this book from the author and this is my honest review。 I recommend all their books。 。。。more

I am enjoying this series very much。 Number 4 is a fast paced mystery set in a funeral home， with murders that look like a Mafia shootings， but are they really？ People are missing without a trace， evidence is non existent and hidden clues。 Charli Cross and her partner Matthew Church must unravel these cryptic clues and find the killer。 Another page Turner from this author。 I can hardly wait for the next book。

Dark Malice （Charli Cross Mystery Series Book 4） By Mary Stone and Donna Berdel。 This book was a bit slow in the beginning。 However， once it pick up I could not put it down Charli and Mathew have their hands full with these sicko using the facility to cremate their victims。 In addition， someone is toying with Charli ！ Could it really be Madeline Killer？ I definitely recommend this Series can’t wait till the next book…

Another great book in the Charlie Cross series， each book seems to be better than the last！ Needless to say， the horrific murders added to the mystery of the adventure， being burned alive in a crematorium is just unthinkable。 Charlie also is brought back to her best friends murder from 10 years ago by anonymous notes， has the murderer returned for her？ Can't wait for the next book。 Another great book in the Charlie Cross series， each book seems to be better than the last！ Needless to say， the horrific murders added to the mystery of the adventure， being burned alive in a crematorium is just unthinkable。 Charlie also is brought back to her best friends murder from 10 years ago by anonymous notes， has the murderer returned for her？ Can't wait for the next book。 。。。more

To be honest I didn't think that the Charlie Cross books could get any better after the last one with the voodoo。 This one went into a completely different direction but was brilliant。 So engrossed and I read it in one setting it was that good。 Just loved it and the ending was perfect。 I was given an advance copy by the author but the review is entirely my own。 To be honest I didn't think that the Charlie Cross books could get any better after the last one with the voodoo。 This one went into a completely different direction but was brilliant。 So engrossed and I read it in one setting it was that good。 Just loved it and the ending was perfect。 I was given an advance copy by the author but the review is entirely my own。 。。。more

I didn't think Mary and Donna could get anymore gruesome or weirder than the voodoo story， but this topped that one！ Murder at a crematorium， a gruesome Mafia style murder that is。 Charli and Matthew have several promising leads， or do they？ This was slightly gory but very interesting。 Faint of heart， it's okay， not as bad as I make it sound。 A little morbidity makes a book more interesting， right？！ I didn't think Mary and Donna could get anymore gruesome or weirder than the voodoo story， but this topped that one！ Murder at a crematorium， a gruesome Mafia style murder that is。 Charli and Matthew have several promising leads， or do they？ This was slightly gory but very interesting。 Faint of heart， it's okay， not as bad as I make it sound。 A little morbidity makes a book more interesting， right？！ 。。。more
