Anna Legat – Out of Sight

On the morning after his thirtieth wedding anniversary Stewart Harding is found dead. He was an arrogant and thoroughly unpleasant man and there is no shortage of suspects, but all of them have firm alibis. In any case, everything points towards it being an opportunistic killing linked to a robbery. 

Newly promoted DI Mark Webber is assigned as the SIO with Gillian Marsh overseeing the investigation. However, when her mother dies, she takes leave of absence and lets Webber continue on his own. 

Webber is making good progress until his colleague – and secret lover – DC Erin Macfadyen disappears without trace. Webber’s world falls apart. 

DCI Marsh cuts her bereavement leave short to take over the investigation into Stewart Harding’s death and to track down her missing officer. 

There is no doubt that she will find Harding’s killer, but will she find Erin and are the two cases connected? 

The sixth book in Anna Legat’s DI Gillian Marsh series. I have read some books in the series and always like returning to these characters. Anna Legat is an author who has the knack for drawing the reader in and keeping them in the palm of her hand.

As always, the quality of her writing is superb. Every book I have read by Anna Legat never lets me down. This particular book sees Gillian being promoted to D.C.I, but she isn’t happy. It wasn’t a post she wanted. Then, to make matters go from bad to worse, she receives a marriage proposal. One that she veers away from answering!

Along with her promotion comes Mark Webers promotion to D.I, and his girlfriend Erin is hoping for D.S. everything seems to be coming together for Weber until events begin to unfold. This is a series that’s so authentic in the way the police work and how hard they have to work to get the results.

It’s a plot that weaves all the separate threads together so well and even humour that I definitely appreciate . Out of Sight is a worthy addition to the series. I was turning pages so fast because I was so invested and read it whenever I was able. A series worth reading if you enjoy strong characters and an immersive storyline.
