A Beautiful Funeral

Title: A Beautiful Funeral: A Novel
Author: Jamie McGuire
Series: The Maddox Brother, book 5
Copyright: 2016 paperback
Source: Amazon

published description: Eleven years to the day after eloping in Vegas with Abby, Special Agent Travis Maddox delivers his own brand of vigilante justice to mob boss Benny Carlisi. Vegas's oldest and most violent crime family is now preparing for vengeance, and the entire Maddox family is a target.

The secret Thomas and Travis have kept for a decade will be revealed to the rest of the family, and for the first time the Maddoxes will be at odds. While none of them are strangers to loss, the family has grown, and the risk is higher than ever. With brothers against brothers and wives taking sides, each member will make a choice—let the fear tear them apart, or make them stronger.

Kind of disappointed. It was cool to see everyone (really everyone) but, going back and forth between basically everyone got a little...I don't know...can't really even describe it well. I wanted more from some and less from others and several of them made me really mad. Also felt like several of the stories weren't developed very well - just went from middle of a conflict to sort of solved without seeing a lot of the actual action. Anyway, love the family / series and some of this was good but, just didn't hit me as the grand finale I wanted it to be.
