Two teenagers are found chained to a radiator the boy dead but the girl still clinging to life. DI Kim Stone arrives at the familiar scene as it is exactly how she and her twin were discovered in the same tower thirty years ago. Later she arrives at the scene where the bodies of a middle-aged couple are found in a burnt car bearing an eerie similarity to the deaths of her own parents.The killer is mirroring Kim’s past and will do anything to destroy her emotionally before claiming her as his final target.

Dead Memories is the 10th book in the DI Kim Stone series by Angela Marsons, it just gets better and better with each book. A tightly woven book full of tension, twists and turns strong characters and a gripping story-line makes it another great addition to this addictive series. Cannot wait for Book 11!

I would like to thank Bookouture & NetGalley for providing an ARC of this book in exchange for my honest and fair review.

Wow, Angela Marsons has done it yet again! Every time I think she couldn’t possibly write a book as good as the last one she outdoes herself every time. Absolutely brilliant! My full review will be posted on my blog soon.

This (book 10) was the first I've read from this author. First off, I didn't feel like I needed to have read the previous 9 just to know what was going on. Even though the story was all about Detective Stone's previous cases / life. The previous cases may or may not have been covered in previous books, but the background here was enough that I didn't feel I was missing out on a lot of back story.
The story was well written and I am happy that I have 9+ stories to read that I will enjoye.

This author is one of my favourite and I instantly put all other books aside when a new book comes out. This is book ten in the Kim Stone series and to fully understand the characters and their backgrounds, they should be read in order. Being such a long series already, you would assume that the stories contained in them would begin to lack the strength that the first books had. But thankfully that is not the case. The author continues to smash it with her subsequent books and I for one applaud her for her ability to bring books of such a high standard to her loyal fans.

This book has Kim facing her demons in truly horrific fashion. She finds herself tackling a case where the sense of deja vu is hard to ignore. As time goes on, and the case becomes more complex, Kim realises that someone is forcing her to face her long hidden fears once more. She quickly realises where things are going and has to relive a more recent heartbreak even though she is still dealing with the fallout from it.

It is difficult to say quite how much I loved this story without giving too much away, suffice to say these books just keep getting better and better.

Huge thanks to the author, Bookouture and Netgalley for providing a copy. Bring on number eleven!

I have been waiting sooooooo long for a book that explained this character- totally worth the wait to see her and her team as humans and not merely names on a page.
Truly the best of the whole series!
