Stolen – Clayburn is back and still taking names

Paul Finch has created one of the best female detectives in crime novels, that just makes you want to read more. Lucy Clayburn is not so much a defective detective, but a woman trying to do the job correctly in spite of her family. Stolen is compulsive and gripping reading and gives readers a ride as if on a Ducati bike going at full throttle. If you are after a police procedural thriller, jog on, the rule book has gone out of the window.

Lucy Clayburn is in the midst of a dog fighting investigation, and even though the bust was successful, she wants to put away the organiser for so much more. When Sister Cassie, a ‘fallen’ nun comes to see her, she barely has time to see her and take her concerns on board let alone seriously.

When a young female goes missing while on a run, does Lucy remember Sister Cassie saying that people were going missing. The problem was, the people Sister Cassie had been reporting missing were the homeless, people nobody really cared. When Lucy discovers that there are similarities in the case does, seeks out the nun for more information.

At the same time The Crew, the underworld criminal masters of Greater Manchester are under attack from all directions. They seem to be falling out with each other, and when one of the underbosses is shot, all hares are set running. Will Lucy be caught in the crosshairs, as she tries to balance her life as a detective and that of her biological father, a criminal.

As the truth comes out, about Lucy and the crimes that she has been investigating, her life is in danger and that of her colleague. Will her tenacity be able to save a colleague, while trying not to be killed by the criminals she is chasing? Will her father appear and make life even harder for her?

Once again Paul Finch has written a brilliant thriller, with a very likeable police detective, who is focused on her job, but like a honey pot seems to attract wasps that want to attack her. Stolen is a gripping thriller that will keep you on the edge of your comfy seat. ( )
