My Rating (out of 5)
⭐⭐⭐⭐
Katerina Diamond is being hailed as the new "Queen of Crime", and for good reason. With a well thought out plot, and easy to relate to characters, this book was an easy read. While some characters are from some of Diamond's previous books, this book can be enjoyed as a stand-alone.
When Connor and his father move from the US back to the UK, they hope to put Connor's troubled past behind them. But it can be harder to move on emotionally than physically. He quickly falls in with the popular crowd at school, but he never really feels like he has found his niche. His new friends don't know about his shocking past, or his father. As the story progresses, Connor's life is spiralling out of control, and the consequences could be dire.
Meanwhile, detectives Adrian Miles and Imogen Grey are working hard to catch a serial killer, and Imogen is setting herself up as bait in a dangerous move. Can they figure out who the killer is before the killer finds out who she is?
This book had me engaged right at the beginning, and easily held my interest to the end. Multiple story-lines and sub-plots were woven into a single, cohesive work that was a pleasure to read.
Happy Reading,
Christine
