Goodreads synopsis:
The New York Times bestselling Elemental Assassin series continues with a new e-novella--from the point of view of Finnegan Lane, the foster brother of Gin Blanco, and a fan favorite of readers of the series.
The fallout from his disastrous “family reunion” in Bitter Bite has left Finn feeling hurt, angry, and depressed. He can barely stand to look at himself in the mirror, much less eat any of the delicious barbecue from Gin’s famed Pork Pit restaurant.
But when the funeral for a slain security guard at his bank turns into a showdown with some nasty underworld giants, Finn knows that he must act in order to protect an innocent family.
Finnegan Lane might be the most unwanted man in Ashland these days, but he’s determined to try to make amends for his past mistakes...

4 Stars
This is a novella in the Elemental Assassins series featuring Finn Lane by Jennifer Estep. This comes after the events in Bitter Bite (Elemental Assassins #14).
If you want to get the most out of this story, you really need to read other books in this series to become aware of circumstances and backstory. Finn has been pretty strong in the past and seeing him nearly depressed and lacking might have “Spider” fans shouting Boo, but this books makes up for how Finn has been treated since the fallout in book #14.
It was nice to see Finn take the lead for a change when usually he is playing second fiddle to Spider. His solo mission was quite enlightening as he involved his old boss from the bank. There is a lot of feeling packed into this tiny novella and I am sure fans of this series will come away wanting even more Finn in the future.
