5.0 out of 5 starsAnother brilliant who done it
Reviewed in Australia on 12 December 2021
Terrific crime mystery leaves you guessing until the end. The continued development of the main characters and their back stories and everyday lives brings these stories to life. In this book DS Marie Evans scores a lot of the limelight along with supporting characters Laura Archer and Sam Page.

Reviewed in Australia on 5 December 2021
Said by Marie at the end of the story. That pretty much sums up how these detectives solve their cases. The are not smart or clever. Their results are pretty much the result of dumb luck,, or the work of their victims.

If you try to not think too much about the content, this is a pleasant read.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good in parts

I have read, and loved, all of the previous books by Joy Ellis but this one felt like it was missing something. I thought it was overlong and rambled to its conclusion. The two storylines I felt were fairly predictable and had so many police characters that I was expecting at least one of them to be written out of the story. It is the first Joy Ellis book that I almost didn’t bother to finish, let’s hope we get back to the usual 5 star storyline with the next book.

3.0 out of 5 stars Complicated

......and required a bit too much back referencing, to remind me who was who, for my liking. Not sure what the motive of the second villain was, as he had apparently spent years researching an excuse for a crime he apparently committed only a couple of weeks before. For all that, I'm sure the author enjoyed the journey.

A bit of a plodder but an interesting storyline. Disappointed with the ending … a mild build up and then all tied up in a couple of pages. All felt a bit meh!

Very disappointing. The whole thing is contrived and quite frankly boring. The ending silly.

Good but for me to long, I love Joys writing because it’s nice tat great people are true to each other and there is so little senior management interference, perhaps I’ve been mean with a 3 star rating but Laura and Sam’ s stunt was ridiculous.

3.0 out of 5 stars Over-hyped

Not very gripping or thrilling and full of entirely predictable twists. Best I can say is that it was a pleasant read to pass the time.

3.0 out of 5 stars Interesting but not challenging

The main characters were likeable and easy to relate too but not complex. The perpetrators mental health issues slightly unbelievable. An enjoyable read none the less.
