If you are not reading what Candice Fox is writing you are really missing out on some great writing. The Harriet Blue series just keeps getting better.

 *3.5 Stars*

I probably picked this book up well over a year ago, and only got a certain way before I put it down, unable to hold my interest. A few days ago I figured I really should give it another go, to see if I would finish or just DNF.

Well, I must've originally put the book down just a little bit too soon, as before I knew it, I was a fair bit further in, and quite interested in what was going to happen. Harriet and her crew were an interesting bunch with some interesting investigative techniques, but everything came together quite well and I ended up quite liking this book.

Unfortunately for me this series is going downhill. I really liked the character of Harriet Blue and the setting in Australia. This fourth installment could take place in any city. There was no sense of setting and a lack of character development.

Harriet Blue is in prison for murder when Police Commissioner Woods offers her a way out. His daughter, Tonya, and his granddaughter, Rebel, are missing, and he want Harriet to find them. Harriet, along with Tox and Whitt, uncovers a drug operation, buried remains, and an extortion plot, as well as a murder at the prison.
I thought there was way too much going on in this story. But, it was a quick read, and I will read the next Harriet Blue novel, if there is one.

Probably a dead average book. I mean it’s good, don’t get me wrong, but I didn’t feel attached to any of the characters besides Whitt. He’s a good guy and I liked him a lot, the others just annoy me a little bit to be honest. 

I enjoyed some aspects of both of the investigations, but in the end I got bored of the one with the Dr being murdered. I think it fell a little flat and I didn’t like that

Harriet was supposed to be focusing on the case of the missing daughter and granddaughter and that was the only reason for her getting out of prison, just for her to focus all of her energy on the prison doctor case.

It’s also so unsurprising that she would be in love with Whitt just as he is with her, but for her to deny him of a relationship because she’s “too chaotic”. Feel like that’s a standard in a book like this.

All in all, it was good but I can’t say a lot about it without a bucket load of spoilers. That being said it isn’t one of the best crime novels I’ve read, and I probably wouldn’t recommend it but it’s definitely easy and quick to read.

I enjoy Harry’s escapades immensely and this one did not disappoint. Solid Patterson in that the story was quick and easy and I flew through it.
