Limelight by Graham Hurley is the fourth book in the Enora Andressen series. I must be truthful and say I never realised this when I accepted the blog tour. I needn’t have worried, after the blurb enticing me in, I was prepared to throw myself in head first! The book works well as a standalone, which I was happy with.

Actress Enora loves her home town, the people, the peace and the literary festival that happens as well. She enjoys chatting with her neighbours and making friends with them all. Then one of them disappears, Christianne Beaucarne, a French lady who is one of Enora’s friends as well as a neighbour. She decides she is going to find Christianne and nothing will stop her, maybe Enora, isn’t prepared for what will happen as she investigates this missing friend.

A book that you think is a straight forward mystery story until you realise it is beginning to become more complicated by the chapter. Before you know it you are on the edge of your seat, reading an intriguing mystery that is becoming more of a conspiracy with the twists and turns in the story.

I enjoyed the characters and feel this is a very character-driven plot and they all play their parts in making this as suspenseful as I found it. I have been missing out on an excellent mystery/suspense series and that, I feel, needs rectifying!

Thanks to Rachel’s Random Resources and Graham Hurley for my copy of the book today for this review.
