Thank you NetGalley for an advance copy of this book. Detectove Nikki just solved the mystery of who killed her sister which hit National News. A mother whose daughter was killed 20 years ago recently learned that the man believed to have killed her lied. She asks for Nikki’s help but then another teenager is murdered with a note written for the Detective. This book takes us on a goose chase never knowing who the killer might be. Even though this is book 2, Dana Perry does a great job of giving enough information that the reader isn’t lost. It works great as a single story. I really enjoyed this book and finished it in 2 days. I am looking forward to book 3.

Final twists and turns you won't see coming!

In the second installment of this series, FBI agent Nikki Cassidy is back in the limelight. Her high profile has drawn the attention of a mother looking for closer on a 20yr old case of her daughter's murder. Another small town, another small police department to work with, another new romance and then a staggering link to her childhood hometown, has Nikki and her team working connections between cases from 20 years ago and now.

3.5 stars on this one. There is a good mystery, twists and turns, some served up at the end as recaps. For me, there are attributes of the main character, Nikki that frustrate me, which in turn impact my overall rating when you don't love the main character. Some of the writing is also a little repetitive in places which slows the story in sections. While these factors dropped the overall rating down for me, it is still an easy read with nice twists and surprises.

Second book in the Agent Nikki Cassidy series
And what a great read this was
I read in two nights couldn’t put it down
You will love this book
Thanks NetGalley

This book (and series) shows a lot of promise. Unfortunately, there are a few things where it falls short on that promise.
It is a page-turner and I wanted to know what was going to happen, it's also a fairly quick read and I didn't feel that it dragged. However, there is a lot of repetition and without that it would become an unputdownable fly-through and breakneck speed book.
The storyline this time is very similar to the first book. There are reasons for that, but I think more difference could have been made. I also wasn't convinced by some of the things that Nikki did. Surely the FBI has plenty of cyber experts who would look at websites, rather than some agent just guessing the password on a whim. I'm also not at all convinced about the websites in the first place. After the first book, surely they'd assume that there were far more criminals out there connected to it, not be surprised that it doesn't seem to be over?
My other gripe was the 'relationship' that Nikki gets into, it seems to come from nowhere with very little chemistry. I just didn't buy it or see any need for it.
This is quite a harsh review. There was a lot I didn't like about this book, but there was a lot I still enjoyed, which is why, despite all of this, I'm still giving it 3 stars. I just wish that it could have been a little more.
I received a complimentary copy of this book through NetGalley. The opinions expressed in this review are completely my own and given voluntarily.

Last One To Die is the second in the Nikki Cassidy series. There are a lot of similarities to the first novel, and at times it feels a little repetitive. Cassidy and her team again chase the killer of several young girls, this time across multiple locations. Many of the characters from the first novel reappear, and some new ones add a different element, including a new love interest for Cassidy.

The story arc feels a little slow in places, as the killer taunts Nikki, while the team are a long way from solving the case. The ending though is fast paced and dramatic, full of twists. Overall this is a good read, although somehow feels just a little less satisfying than the previous novel.

This was a fun mystery book that follows FBI Detective Nikki Cassidy through tracking down a serial killer and solving another murder. It quickly pulled me in and kept me guessing who the killer was. I thought I had it figured out a few times, but the twists are good and kept me on my toes! I also enjoy the romance between Nikki and Chief Nolan, and the partnership between her and her FBI partner Alex. If you like mystery, crime or who-did-it books I would recommend picking this one, and the first book in the series, up!

I enjoyed the story but it the story is very similar to the first book. The end was very surprising but a little predictable. I’m excited to read the next book.

Thank you Netgalley and Bookouture for this arc.

2.5/5⭐️The last one to die is book two in the Nikki Cassidy books. This story starts within weeks where the previous story left off. The first 50% of the book was written almost painfully slow and repetitive and basically just summarized and told us the same story of the first one. There were multiple inconsistencies and the story lacked the depth that the first one had. I kept wondering when things would get interesting and if things would continue to be the exact same way as the first. Even the twists were left feeling like I was just reading the same one again and the ending left me wondering if it’s worth reading the next one. I’m disappointed because I wanted to like this one but it just felt flat.

I liked this book took a while too get into but once i got into it i was gripped and actually surprised at the end i didnt see it coming but once it did everything clicked. It was really clever actually off too read the next one now

Book 2 FBI Agent Nikkii Cassidy.
I was looking forward to book 2, in the FBI Agent Nikki Cassidy. However i was rather disappointed. I found it rather repetitive and at one point i thought i was reading the first book..
More girls are going missing but they seem to be doing so of their own free will without any pressure from the killer, but who is it? Why is this happening? And are the murders all linked?

Wow! From beginning to end I enjoyed this book! Murder mystery chasing a killer with a strong female FBI lead? What’s not to love? looking forward to reading the next one which I plan to start immediately!

Nikki Cassidy is back again! I was so excited to read this book and it did not disappoint. It was unpredictable and addicting. I loved it!

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for allowing me to read this arc in exchange for an honest review!

Yet another great detective book by Dana Perry. FBI agent Nikki has never given up hope trying to find out why the man imprisoned killed her little sister. Each year she visits him in prison and for that full hour he never speaks until now, He claims there were others involved and gives her a clue where to look. When another girl goes missing the same age and on the anniversary her sister time she knows time is running out. This story was full of unexpected twists and can't wait to read the next instalment.

After having just read The Nowhere Girls I thought Last to Die was the same book , or close to. In some ways a continuation but a new case for agent Nikki Cassidy. With some of the same characters and new added in. A couple of things I didn’t see coming. Thank you NetGalley for this free advanced copy and exchange for my honest review..

What another brilliant psychological thriller by Dana Perry. Very thrilling and enjoyable.

I felt scared and nervous for the Dectective Nikki and dreaded something happening to her.

This is not a predictable book which is what I love to see as I don't want to read a book that is easy to guess what happens.

This series NEEDS Netflix to be made into a show.

I enjoyed reading this book and didn't see the twist coming at all! I suspected multiple characters at different times but was kept guessing the whole way through.

That being said, I feel like this book could have been shorter and there was a lot of unnecessary information in it referring to the previous two books in the series. I found it quite repetitive at times.

As with the previous books in the series, I really liked the side characters and thought they were written really well. I still can't make myself like the main character though, she is confident to the point of arrogance and can't seem to trust anyone to do the job other than her.

Overall, I have enjoyed reading this series and would be interested in reading more from this author.

I could not wait to read this book! I started it and read covered to cover in one day
This is the second book in the Nikki Cassidy series, and it was so good!
Right now I am on to book 3!

A really really good second book in the series, had me guessing all the way and was shocked by the ending, just about to read the third one and I cannot wait, a very good new author though

Book 2 in the Nikki Cassidy series. This book was alitle slower than the first book in the series. Nikki uncovers more questions about what happened to her sister Caitlin while looking for more missing girls. This book was just ok .I'm finding Nikki to be a bit annoying at times so I'm hoping the next book in the series is better.

Second in the series and again FBI Agent Nikki Cassidy is investigating the cold case murder of a teenage girl which seems to loop bak to the murder of her sister fifteen years previously.
I enjoy the romance that mellows out the darkness a little without being too eeugh.
This was fast paced, easy to read, compelling and enjoyable. Wasn't expecting he twist at the end.
