‘One Perfect Grave’ by Stacy Green is the second book in the Special Agent Nikki Hunt series, set in Stillwater Minnesota. You can read this on its own easily but, as with most series, you don’t get the same connection with the characters as if you read them all.
Nikki is looking for a kidnapped child when a call comes in. Two bodies discovered and one is Nikki’s missing child and the other is his mother, whom Nikki suspected anyway. As she begins to investigate a murder instead she begins to find stuff about the child’s family that shows they are more than broken than they know.
As another child goes missing Nikki and the team find they are spread even thinner as they attempt to find a link between the two cases. They are given a clue that changes everything they thought about the cases up till this point and leaves them shocked. With time being everything will they manage to unravel the clues and find the missing child before another one dies?
I so enjoy a Nikki Hunt book! Stacy Green has introduced a series that I loved from the off. Packed full of fast-moving action with characters that I am invested in and a plot that has possible suspects everywhere. A book that I was flipping the pages so fast the kindle could hardly keep up. In this story, we find out a bit more about Caitlin and we see a different side to her. That is part of the charm of this series, we are all involved with facet of these characters, work and home life.
There are twists aplenty to keep you intrigued and the author actually waits to the end until she wraps it all up like only a great author can! As I said, a series I really love and would definitely recommend.
Thanks to Bookouture and Netgalley for my copy of the book.
