When the pot has too many cooks a feast can be ruined, and that’s exactly what happens with Xavier and Vic’s new cases. Each proves more complicated than initially thought with criminals dropping out of the sky, wreaking havoc upon Xavier, Vic, and their excellent employees. By the end, Vic threatens to open a school that teaches criminals how to stay out of each other’s way.
Worse yet, a treasured member of the staff is shot in the heart while attempting to save Vic and the Queen’s cousin.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

My dog, Jess and I hike in fabulous woods every day, rain or shine, sleet or snow. Having an adventurous nature, I learned to fly small cessnas in NJ, hang-glide in New Zealand, kayak in Pennsylvania, ski in New York, scuba dive with great white sharks in Australia, dig up dinosaur bones in Montana, sky dive in Indiana, and raft a class four river in Tasmania. I'm an avid gardener, amateur photographer, and dabbler in watercolors and graphic arts. Yet through my entire life, my first love has and always will be writing novels. I love to create interesting characters, set them loose, and scribe what happens.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic Book by Liza O'Connor!!

Liza O’Connor does it again in the Darkest Days. Book 6 of The Adventures of Xavier & Vic series.

Only the complexity of the crimes and the number of criminals is higher than ever before. Criminals are tripping over themselves.

First, there is the murder of a milk maid. The father insists the murderer is the werewolf. The constable arrests Jacko the Pirate for the deed. Resolving the crime properly is difficult with so many potential murderers and Constable Ott on the take.

Second, there is a missing Renoir at the British Museum, but art thieves are tripping over themselves, mudding the clues.

Finally, Mrs. Haughton has a ghost. Since neither Vic nor Xavier believe in ghosts, they suspect the nephew the old lady loves so much. Turns out that particular nephew needs their assistance as well.

Then someone important gets shot three times in the chest. Be warned, you might cry here.

And finally, someone gets knighted. Loved it from beginning to end!

5.0 out of 5 stars but I loved this book

If you haven't read the books previous to this point, you areally really missing out. .. but I loved this book. It brings closure to a question I've been wondering about for awhile, where did the wolf man go? By the ends of this book if you aren't asure ready for next as I am then maybe we've been reading different books. .. or you find yourself siding with or are the murderous butler

5.0 out of 5 stars Fans of compelling characters and witty storylines will enjoy these books.
Reviewed in the United States on January 6, 2016
Having not read the other books in the Adventures of Xavier and Vic, I jumped right in on book 6. Crazy? Maybe, but I loved Liza O'Connor's other books and found out that this was a series I hadn't read yet...

The Darkest Days doesn't refer to a lack of light, but to some dangerous situations which could end someone's life. There are so many people in danger in this book, you might want to take some extra insurance out on yourself...just in case. And I'm not going to risk myself by giving away spoilers.

Liza's characters are witty and brave during investigations where not only danger presents a life and death matter but also relationships are on the line. Vic has a very different way of dealing with investigations than Xavier but when they come together, they are able to find the perps. but not without risking their friends who have come to their aid. It is the characters that will keep your attention as you try to solve the mysteries which appear to be easy fixes but turn out to be much bigger than you think.

While the characters are important, the storyline is meaningful. I learn facts reading these stories and am able to look at life in a new way. I see through the stories, a new world where things aren't always what they seem (and isn't that how life really is?)

These are certainly books which will keep your interest, engage your mind and pull at your heart....maybe the life insurance isn't such an unusual need, after all.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent as always.
Reviewed in the United States on January 7, 2016
Okay i'll be the first to admit that i am a fan of Liza O'Connor's and especially the Xavier and Vic series. Each book is full of twist and turns and this one was no exception. Being the sixth book in the series I loved the feeling of reading being like catching up with friends i haven't seen in awhile. That of course didn't mean it was boring or repetitive, on the contrary it was a wonderful fresh story that kept me on the edge of my seat right until the end.

As for the end I think this is probably a first for me but I'm issuing a tissue warning you may just need them.
