I love this author. Wham she did it again. This is the sixth gripping case with Detective Hero Nelson, a man who has to deal with frightening problems in his own life as well as investigate the murder of a woman who seemed to have everything. Angela Jameson had a terrific job, a child on the way, and a perfect marriage – why would someone kill her? The case becomes more complex as more murders occur. Could they be related?
This is more than a police procedural. The characters are very real in their pain, fear and loss. Families are devastated. You will feel what they feel as Detective Hero works the crime scenes, feeling simultaneously frantic about the fate of his sister. Hero and his partner Julie Shaw care about people – that is the emotional pull of this thriller. It’s a terrific, gripping read that I could not stop reading. Although sixth in this outstanding series, it reads easily as a standalone. Highly recommended, five stars!
She’s just spent a few hours with her girlfriends. Angela Jameson has everything she ever wanted … a great job, a wonderful husband, and a child on the way. Who wanted her dead?
DI Nelson and his team are called in to investigate. More bodies are found, leading him to believe these cases are all connected. but how? Why?
It’s never a good time to get embroiled in a new case. However, Hero has a family problem that he needs to help solve and he finds his concentration on either problem is wavering.
As all the books in this series, it is well written with credible characters and a tightly woven plot. Although 6th in the series, this is easily read as a stand alone. The book is full of action, with police procedures solidly adhered to.
Many thanks to the author for the digital copy of this crime fiction. Read and reviewed voluntarily, opinions expressed here are unbiased and entirely my own.
A long time MA Comley fan it still surprises me when I open a new book, become engrossed in the story and go through the myriad of emotions the characters and plot envelop me in. Best friends like Angela and her mates are people we can all relate to. Those friends we grew up with and shared everything. But childhood memories are long forgotten. Now it’s marriages, children, jobs. Wonderful friends and lovely people, they have the perfect life…or at least it appears that way until Angela’s body is found a short distance from home, hanging from a tree.
Hero Nelson is a determined DI, and along with his partner Julie they ramp up their investigation into Angela’s murder. Clues are non-existent. No old boyfriends. No one she’s fell out with. Will a second body give them the information they need to solve the case? Or a third? The killer is becoming more vicious with each kill. What drives him? What possible motive could he have?
Another thing I love about M. A. Comley’s books is we also get an indepth view into the killer’s mind. And her characters are never one dimensional. Hero may be a top notch DI, but he’s also a family man and at times torn between his need to be there for a family member and the murders that take up his days. Even the killer is torn between the need that drives him and what he knows is right.
A well plotted, emotionally intense police procedural/crime thriller. I’ve read all the Hero books, but this one has been my favorite. It reads well as a standalone. Highly recommended.
