I wouldn't normally spend £9.56 on an ebook, especially by an author I had not read before. However, I saw one of my friends had given a different book by the same author a good review. I think it was a later one in this series. So I thought I would read the preview on Kobo of the first book (this one) and see if it sounded interesting. It did, I was intrigued, so after a few minutes of arguing with myself over the price, I thought YOLO and bought it. I then spent five hours reading it. I found it fast paced and generally well written. I did spot a couple of hiccups like repeated words. I had a grumble about bed sores being caused by sheets not being changed rather than pressure due to immobility, but that's probably because I do admin and develop online training for a care company. It's not something everyone would notice. I enjoyed the author's style and expression, particularly engaging all senses. There was the obligatory 'save the cat' moment towards the beginning to get the reader and Kate to like the rather stern Andy a little better. I felt the relationship between Andy and Kate developed nicely and was well written with just the right amount of angst not to overdo it. There was just a bit of cliche towards the end with the 'are you sure?' and sensations exploding, but to be honest, these days it is nigh on impossible to avoid it, perhaps it is even required. Overall, I thought this was a well written, well structured three act plot that crossed all the Ts and dotted all the Is. I would recommend this to others and will most likely continue with the series, although perhaps out of next week's budget, lol. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

Dr. Kate Morrison doesn't know how or why someone would create human bombs that are triggered by touch. But when Sergeant Andy Wyles blocks Kate from touching the patient who collapses in her Vancouver ER, Kate joins the investigation to demand answers, regardless of the danger. As the two women work together to find those responsible for creating an army of human weapons, Kate finds it increasingly difficult to ignore her feelings for the fiercely protective and unrelentingly perceptive cop. The investigation escalates, and Kate gradually begins to trust Andy, not only with her safety but also with the difficult details of her past. With lives at risk and her heart on the line, Kate must search for a way to defuse the bombs and save her patients, even as she questions the intensifying connection between herself and Andy.

So I’m going to guess that the 4 average rating for this book reflects the fact that the people who chose to read it probably went in with a positive bias. It’s not at all bad, but I don’t think there is anything in the plotting, character, setting or writing style that would cause it to rise above a 3.
Unfortunately, the narrator is arguably the worst I’ve ever encountered. Imagine a thriller being read by someone who normally does teen romance. Every other sentence includes a sort of chuckle, or as I began thinking of it, the verbal equivalent of a smiley face emoticon. That’s the voice she uses for the main character and general narration. All the other characters are some version of gruff. More so for men, a bit less for the tough female cop. Well, there is also the nurse whose British accent is limited to a couple of words here and there.
One final comment. Oddly enough, this book starts out in Vancouver, BC, a city also featured in a non-fiction book I read and enjoyed immensely, immediately before this. The sense of place was completely absent from this book. It could have happened anywhere. ( )
