Meanwhile DC Fry is stuck in a seminar and bored to death. Until her actions make her being able to stay in the seminar impossible. Sent back to the unit to help DC, Fry is feeling as if she no longer has a place there. The relationship between characters and their places in life seems to be nearing a crossroads.

THE DEVIL'S EDGE is part of the series written by Stephen Booth that follows the characters of Cooper and Fry. Each book can be read as a standalone where the mystery is involved. The characters grow and change over each book and this one confused me a little in that area. I thought Cooper and his finance had ended the last book with problems, yet in this one all seemed to be fine. Maybe it's explained in the next one or maybe I'm just easily confused.

The story itself is interesting and keeps you guessing. THE DEVIL'S EDGE is a good read as a standalone. As part of the series I thought he needed to look more into the relationship of Cooper and Fry. It seemed a little confusing and needs clarity.

Overall though THE DEVIL'S EDGE is a good story and enjoyable part of the series. THE DEVIL'S EDGE by Stephen Booth is a good mystery that makes you think.
