The book is composed of four
novellas that are separate stories but, they are also interconnected. I
didn't realize that this book was a part of a series. I felt that the
book can be read as a standalone but, I felt like I was missing some
nuances. I liked all four stories and found them entertaining. I think I
might read the other books in the series to get the full story behind
the characters.
