Usually I am not a lover of novellas but as I know this series well (in fact it is one of my favourite series) I really enjoyed the novella and it is interesting to see MIT in its early days and at a time when Matilda‘s husband is still alive.

Caitlin has just reported a rape, which happened some months before, when she is suddenly murdered in her house.

Andrew65 Matilda and her team have to investigate to see if the two incidents are related before the murderer and / or the rapist strike again.

This was overall a very good short story taking about an hour and a quarter to read. As well as the early days of her team it also covers some of the background to her relationship with DI Ben Hales, which forms an important element of the series.

Andrew65 I really can‘t recommend this serious strongly enough, and whilst I wait impatiently for the next book in the series this was a good read to spend some more time with Matilda, dealing with my withdrawal symptoms.
