Requiem Mass di Elizabeth Corley
Sometimes I thought i was enjoying it but overall, not so much. Won't be continuing the series
In a London suburb, a woman was meticulously trapped, kidnapped and killed. DCI Andrew Fenwick, just back from leave to care for and then bury his mentally ill wife, is looking into old cases to ease in his return to work. Then another woman in the same suburb is brutally murdered. There are no miraculous revelations here - just hard, gritty detective work. It provides a good story. And, is the first of a series featuring Fenwick.
Requiem Mass by Elizabrth Corley
Andrew Fenwick series Book #1
3.5 ★'s
What's It About?
When young mother Debbie Fearnside goes missing, police interest is minimal. Then DCI Andrew Fenwick notices a curious set of coincidences with the case of murder victim Kate Johnstone. It becomes clear they have both been murdered, revenge for a long-forgotten death.
What I Think?
It doesn't carry much of a surprise. It is the first book in the series and I know they can sometimes be a bit awkward but there was just some points that were a bit fuzzy and not cleared up very well. I have read the second book and found that it's plot was more tightly construed. I still need to post the review for it but I will give this series the chance that I feel it deserves.… (altro)

Grave Doubts by Elizabeth Corley
4.5★'s
What's It About?
Andrew Fenwick must stop a serial killer. Viciously attacked by a serial rapist, intent on murder, Sergeant Louise Nightingale is recovering from her ordeal, relieved that the psychopath has been put behind bars for a very long time. Escaping to a remote family home for a well-earned rest, she is unaware that her nightmare has only just begun. When a nameless, faceless terror starts stalking the country, her colleague, Detective Chief Inspector Andrew Fenwick, questions whether or not they have the right man. Leaving a trail of bodies in his wake, the killer soon makes clear his ultimate goal—Nightingale--and he will not rest until he can exact his cruel and calculated revenge. Desperately trying to reach her before the killer does, DCI Andrew Fenwick wonders if her continued silence means he is already too late.
What Did I Think?
It's going to be hard to say much about this book without giving away some real spoilers...but I can tell you that Elizabeth Corley has created a compelling, enticing story with a cast of characters that are believable...perhaps maybe too much so. I did think that at times that Nightingale's actions and reactions were very foolish for a trained and dedicated police woman. This and the fact that the book is a bit long, lost it a half star. It is terrifyingly suspenseful and will make you think twice or even three times about playing on-line games.… (altro)
