Hard Rain | Irma Venter
4 posts | 7 read | 8 to read
Chaos, murder, and a hint of sizzling romance descend on East Africa in this electrifying page-turner of a mystery. Journalist Alex Derksen's new assignment in Tanzania should be easy, but he soon finds himself on the wrong side of the news. It starts when he meets Ranna, a beautiful photographer with something to hide. Alex stopped believing in love a long time ago, yet here in the middle of East Africa, it's found him again. Alex knows a thing or two about chaos--wherever he goes, it follows. When an IT billionaire washes up onshore after seasonal flooding, he finds himself at the center of an investigation with Ranna as the main suspect. It turns out she may have a good reason for hiding her past. Wherever she goes, murder follows. Alex should be used to these cat-and-mouse games, but this time it's different. Should he listen to his heart and help Ranna hide the bloody trail leading to her? Or should he use his head and run for his life?

Set mainly in Tanzania & South Africa, this thriller centers around a journalist, Alex, who falls in love with the charismatic photographer, Ranna. Though there‘s a lot of pushing back and forth, avoiding the truth, the reason eventually spills out. Its uneven pacing made this drag a bit, but I appreciated the setting, even though I didn‘t particularly care about any of these characters. There is a sequel, but this ends satisfyingly enough for me!

I had a hard time with this book. For me the timeline didn't make any sense.. not for the development of the two MCs relationships or the crimes.

There is another book in the series coming out in English next year, but I don't think I'll pick it up.
