This was a very good start to a series. The author is a good writer and I love 💕 the complex-flawed characters of Ruth and Nick. The premise of the murders was interesting and I didn‘t guess the murderer. The only criticism is that there were too many twists in the end which seemed to make the book drag a bit. I will move on to the 2nd book as I want to see what happens next.

Andrew65 A great review, still ploughing through it. Think Nick needs help! Perhaps he gets it later in the book. 3y
Tove_Reads I really liked it too! Agree that the ending was a bit unbalanced. Was also annoyed with how much was written about Nick‘s drinking problem. We get it - he has a big drinking problem! Otherwise it got me hooked. 3y
EadieB @Andrew65 I feel there will be definite problems with him in future books as he really does need immediate help! 3y
