Silent Kill (Maeve Kerrigan)

Silent Kill (Maeve Kerrigan) | Jane Casey

pick

When a schoolgirl is killed on a London bus, DC Georgia Shaw in on the case alongside DS Kerrigan & DI Derwent. The bus was full of passengers & there is CCTV, yet no-one noticed a thing.

This a novella of approx 100 pages from the viewpoint of Georgia. The reader gets to know about her life a bit more, including her crush on Derwent & how all he sees is Maeve. (continued)

OutsmartYourShelf It was interesting to see Kerwent's dynamic through an outside observer & how obvious it is to everyone except Maeve. It didn't make me like Georgia any more than I did before though. 4🌟

Fourth book finished for #AwesomeAugust.
Loved this Novella, interesting to find out more about Georgia Shaw and to see Maeve through someone else‘s eyes. Also good to see the relationship between Derwent and Maeve through her eyes. An interesting story. But who okayed this boring cover! I totally recommend the Maeve Kerrigan Series.

Tove_Reads Where‘s the woman in red in front of a shabby old house??? 5y

EadieB I don‘t read the novellas but this sounds interesting. 5y

Andrew65 @EadieB I don‘t usually but read it following @Tove_Reads reviewing it. Usually don‘t enjoy novellas but this was much better and over 100 pages long. 5y

Andrew65 @Tove_Reads Even someone in blue in front of a mansion would be better than this horrible cover! So boring! 5y

EadieB @Andrew65 Pretty good size for novella. 5y

Tove_Reads I skip novellas too, but took a chance with this one, and it was worth it! 5y

Tove_Reads Yes, horrible! If the point is the bus then they should have all the people who took the bus in the picture. 5y

Andrew65 @Tove_Reads Yes, or even the bus from the outside. (edited) 5y

Andrew65 @EadieB That‘s what I thought and meant there was more depth to the story. Georgia came across very differently in this book. (edited) 5y

The brand new novella from the point of Georgina is a great read! We finally find out more about Georgina, who she is, what she wants, and her troubling past. A school girl is stabbed to death on a bus. Who did it and why? She seemed quite innocent, but was she really? Fast and easy read, typical great writing by the excellent author Jane Casey!
