Today, I’m really happy to have Anita Wallwr and her latest book on the blog. Thanks to Rachel’s Random Resources and Boldwood Books for the gifted ebook to write my honest review today.
For Matt Forrester, The Forrester Detective Agency is going from strength to strength: they’ve expanded their office space and even hired a new office manager – a qualified and astute woman named Carol.
What starts as a simple burglary case soon turns into something darker. The victim of said burglary soon turns up dead, after engaging in threats with the local yobs she believed to have been responsible.
But it soon becomes clear that there’s more at play here, and Matt – alongside sister Hermia, partner Steve, and life partner Karen – will have to put all their skills to the test, even if it puts them in danger…
A police procedural/mystery from Anita Waller is always a must-read for me. Ever since I discovered her books, I have read every one of them as they have been published. I always know when I pick up a book by her that it will be a great read.
The second book in the Forrester Detective Agency Mystery series. I would say it could be read as a standalone, but the best way is to read the first one so you get the background into the characters.
We are back in Sheffield with Matt and Steve, who have now opened the doors of the agency. It doesn’t take long until they are part of a burglary case, and before too long, there is a murder in the running as well. Alongside these, there are other cases to work on. All this culminates in a missing person just as they are finishing the investigations of everything else they are involved in.
I rather liked the multiple cases, which introduces the reader to new characters in the agency. Anita Waller has a certain knack for creating realistic and layered characters. This meant I felt like I was returning to friends when I read this. I was invested in them all as the story unfolded. Carol was a character who definitely gripped me. I liked learning about life for her, at home, and at work
Another page turner from this author. She always has me gripped and knows how to keep the reader glued to the book. With plenty of action and great characters, the level of mystery and suspense had me from the start. This is yet another must-read and highly recommended for any crime or police procedural/mystery readers.
