Vanished women. A rising body count. A detective who won’t quit.

Detective Kylie “KC” Cassidy thought Major Crimes would be her big break. Instead, she’s chasing the brutal murders of young women—and the trail keeps circling back to Assistant State Attorney Gavin Watkins and his elusive ally, Kozlov.

Each lead vanishes before her eyes, every step forward dragging her deeper into danger. And when Kozlov’s men come after her, KC must rely on her instincts, and on the few people she can trust, to survive long enough to expose the truth.

But when KC gets too close to the truth, she becomes the target. Will KC survive the trap and bring down the predators or become their next victim?

If you like the relentless pursuit of justice in Michael Connelly's Harry Bosch series, the sharp investigative instincts of Lisa Gardner's D.D. Warren, then you'll be captivated by Fatal Invitation, a gripping, fast-paced crime thriller.

Grab your copy of Fatal Invitation today and join KC on her most dangerous case yet!

    4.0 out of 5 stars A Thrilling Read!
    Reviewed in the United States on January 22, 2026
    Format: Paperback
    S.F. Baumgartner takes readers on a dark and twisty ride in Fatal Invitation, the first book in the Detective Kylie Cassidy Series! Detective KC Cassidy is eager to hit the ground running with Major Crimes as a Detective with the Orlando PD. When KC’s latest case involves a body of a woman from her hometown of Pine Grove, the case hits differently—especially since KC knew the victim. As the case unfolds, more women are found all over the county with the same MO: their organs are missing and they didn’t put up a fight. The evidence left behind points to an illegal organ harvesting operation, leaving a breadcrumb trail to people in high places—putting KC’s life in danger.

    S.F. Baumgartner has been on my reading radar for quite some time and I am so excited that I got the opportunity to read Fatal Invitation! Ms. Baumgartner definitely packed the suspense in Fatal Invitation with the rapid rate of bodies being found! I enjoyed meeting KC, but I felt that it was hard to get to know her at times. That didn’t bother me too much—I figured that was Ms. Baumgartner’s intent and that I would get to know KC better as the plot unfolded and the series continues. Because Ms. Baumgartner wrote Fatal Invitation this way, it made the book that much more intriguing to me. What I learned about KC was how passionate she is about her cases, wanting justice for the victims and their families. I love how that passion made her laser-focused in solving the cases and how others saw that as quirky. I especially love that when KC notified a woman’s loved one, KC saw that the family needed the Church and arranged it. Being a lover of mysteries, I really enjoyed the twisted desperate world of organ harvesting and the road the storyline went down because of it. The plot had whispers of Faith in it, but focused more on what it took to catch the bad guys. I liked how Fatal Invitation showed how other agencies, such as Orlando Prime, worked the case too. I enjoyed seeing the resources and gadgets that Orlando Prime had at its disposal. (Orlando Prime reminded me of Hawaii Five-O because of it!) Even though KC and Orlando Prime were working together, it didn’t feel like it a lot in the book because information wasn’t shared until after the fact and they often arrived at the same places, shocked that they were there for the same reasons. I will definitely read more of S.F. Baumgartner’s work in the future and I cannot wait to read what happens to KC next! If you are looking for a dark, twisty read with whispers of Faith in the midst of it, then I highly recommend Fatal Invitation by S.F. Baumgartner!

    I would like to thank the Publisher, NetGalley, and Celebrate Lit Blogging Tours for giving me a copy of Fatal Invitation to review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

    “KC felt the familiar chill that came with recognizing a pattern. A beautiful influencer. A too-good-to-be-true opportunity. A young woman who trusted the wrong person.”

    Whew! I escaped alive out of that crime thriller! S.F. Baumgartner writes in such a compelling way, I thought I was present in the scenes of Fatal Invitation. This series is a spin-off of the Mirror Estates series. Each book in the series can be a standalone. Kylie “KC” Cassidy is a small town detective who has just moved up to the Orlando Police Department. Still, the very first murder victim she investigates is one from her small town where she used to live with her Aunt Mae.

    When a second victim with a similar MO is found shortly after, KC and her partner fight to keep jurisdiction from turning over to Orlando Prime, the city’s elite crime fighting organization. One aspect of the book is following KC and her new partner, Spaulding, to see if they can learn to work together and trust each other. After so long working by herself, can KC adjust to not only having a partner, but sharing her case with a whole nother unit?

    Another is getting an overview of the Orlando Prime team, headed by Commander Frank Travers and his gang that is almost like family. I enjoyed meeting all of these individuals, and getting a feel for their place in crime solving. Jack has to be the comic relief of the team, in a sense. He is so very intelligent, but can he ever bird-walk. I could feel the whole team groaning whenever it was time for him to report in!

    KC and the Orlando Prime team first believe they are tracking a serial killer. But what they eventually uncover is something more planned, more pervasive, and more deeply rooted than they could have imagined. Do they have the skills and resources to expose something so sinister before it takes them, especially KC, out?

    Be ready for lots of characters, fast action, nail-biting tension, and a few twists. I will be looking forward to reading the rest of this clean, crime fiction series!

    I received a copy of the book from Celebrate Lit. I also bought my own ebook. No positive review was required, and all opinions are my own.

    Notable Quotables:

    “And men under pressure do two things.” Eli’s voice lowered. “They break, or they double down.”

    “He’d thrown away his medical license, his marriage, his self-respect. But maybe, just maybe, he could throw away his fear too.”

    “But some of the most dangerous predators operated in plain sight, hiding behind credentials and public trust.”

    Great plot line. Loved the two different teams working together as this was such a serious investigation. Even then there was a twist with another couple of characters on the fringes of the storyline. Looking forward to book 2.
