The Profile (Fucking Scumbags Burn in Hell: Book 10) by Ryan Harding

Loved this!

Perfect ending to an awesome series! Harding pulled out all the stops and delivered one heck of a finale. The way this book wrapped up everything so nicely it was like a gift you didn't even know you wanted. Plenty of gruesome details, I really could envision each victim as they were described.

https://www.uncomfortablydark.com/godlessreviews THE PROFILE by Ryan Harding Kessler, the Mind Stalker, is an agent in search of a killer or killers. When he happens on a department that doesn’t exactly enjoy his celebrity, Kessler has more to deal with then a lone band member who develops an Oedipus complex and a drug addict that needs more than a confessional, as the bodies and secrets pile up. One of Harding’s most hilarious short works and the ending for the Call Me Hoop series, this will keep you guessing and laughing until the bloody end. HIGHLY RECOMMEND 10/5.

And It All Comes Together...

There was no doubt that Ryan Harding would bring the first Fucking Scumbags Burn In Hell season to one Hell of a conclusion. But the way Harding expertly ties it all together, bringing us around full circle, defies even the most liberal expectations. The story of Agent John Kessler, celebrity FBI profiler, is a fascinating and convoluted one. The Profile isn't solely a story about Kessler, though. It's the tale of an insidious serial murderer we'll refer to as The Usurper. Of course, it's also a story about Sonny Hooper. It would hardly be the Hoopiverse without Hoop making an appearance. I can't say anything more. As much as I'd love to dive into this and provide a more detailed description of the things I loved about this installment--and there is an awful lot--I have to keep my mouth shut because I don't want to ruin the fun for anyone else. I will say that the conclusion of this story is one Hell of a captivating, edge-of-the-seat sequence that will leave the reader breathless and dizzy--desperate for more. Thankfully, we have season two to look forward to, and the paperback collecting the whole of season one--including an additional bit of icing on the cake from Drew Stepek himself and an introduction from the always spectacular Rayne Havok. It's worth mentioning, of course, that Harding didn't create this in isolation. None of these phenomenal authors contributing to the Hoopiverse did so without the guidance and tutelage of the maestro, Drew Stepek. As outstanding members of the orchestra, they each brought their own flair and their distinct characters to the page, telling us the stories they developed. Like Hooper himself, Drew worked behind the scenes to help everyone bring the individual scumbags to their fitting conclusions, setting the stage for everything that was to come. I suppose, in the end, we should all just call him Hoop.

Shit. The. Bed.

It’s hard to review The Profile without giving away any spoilers, but I will say this: buckle up! The series has been a hoot, and the clues have all been there, but my guess is many of them were missed. As a participant in the series, I had knowledge of where it was all going, but still found myself gobsmacked by this story. Shit the bed! What a fucking frenzied ending … or should I say, a frenzied beginning?

THE SCUMMIEST SCUMBAG

Oh my fuck! This book has all the answers you may not have even known you were searching for. It's a who's who of the baddest, vilest, and savviest characters. What a fucking ending! I loved this, didn't want it to end. Harding smoothy navigates the reader through the finale, wrapping it in a nice little package for us to ponder while waiting for the next season to kick off. I'm already excited to see where it goes.
