Attualmente non vi sono conversazioni su questo libro. 3.5 Stars Despite not being as suspenseful as I would have liked it was still an entertaining book. I like multi POVs in this genre as Readers get pieces of the story from different points of view and get to work out how they all connect. That being said, the ending was a bit out of left field for me but in a 'that was weird' way, not 'Oooooo, dang I did not see that coming!' way. I quite liked the main character and it was a good set up for book 2. I look forward to seeing where this series goes.

I can't express how pumped I am to see this become a series! So exciting?! This ending left open so many possibilities! I can't wait! This story is totally gripping and surprising. I was seriously hooked. I absolutely love it when a book hooks me the way TMM did! I woke up at 2am wanting to read it. To put a few more chapters in. That makes it an automatic 4.5 star book in my opinion if you ask me! The writing flowed effortlessly and the story was packed with mystery and twists as it spiralled its way to a compelling climax! Quick paced and what a physiological thrillers this was. I thought I knew who TMM was..... Psshhhhh yeah ok! Had no damn idea! Amazing if you ask me. Can't wait to see more of Sarah. Another top notch book from this author.! ⭐⭐⭐⭐.5 PS if you need a advanced reader for future books..... I'm your girl! nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

I am glad that I stumbled into this author because this book is a very good read!
This is not just crime fiction, but also with suggestive paranormal elements in it. My kind of read!
I am not really a crime fiction fan. I am more of an urban fantasy reader. Now, the urban fantasy genre is plagued by plotlessness, so, I am used to that. So much so that a little plot impresses me already. I was very surprised with the plot twist in this book!
I've been reading too many similar crime fiction books because I keep getting our protagonist, DC Sarah Noble, confused with DC Morgan Brookes in One Left Alive by Helen Phifer. I have to keep untangling the details in my head... was it DC Morgan Brookes who owned that big chunk of land with that big, haunted manor? Or was it DC Sarah Noble who was married to her former DI who is already dead, but she keeps talking to? The answer to both questions by the way, is no to the first one and yes to the second one.
This is my first Elliot Fitzpatrick and Emma Gregory listen and I would buy audiobooks by them again. The narrators are good at bringing the characters come to life!
