I've enjoyed every book in this series so far but I think this is the best one yet! The detectives, Khenan Malice and Kelly Pietersen do have their flaws, but nevertheless I warmed to them very easily and I am enjoying learning more about them as the series continues. I love their relationship and the way they work together and admire their determination to find the answers.
Heads Or Tails? is not really about whodunnit, but it focuses more on finding the perpetrator. This made this novel a little different and I really enjoyed this unique approach. There are several chapters narrated by our killer, and this shows us just how twisted they are.
The plot of Heads Or Tails? is complex and intricately planned. Although the identity of the killer is never an issue, Ashman still manages to give the reader lots of twists to get their teeth into and I was kept guessing until the end. As with all of Ashman's books, it's not for the weak of stomach, but I loved the gory details that placed me right at the scene of these horrific crimes.
The novel ends on a cliffhanger, so I can't wait to see what will come next for these brilliant characters.

This is a great book but for full enjoyment I would recommend reading the previous book in the series before starting this one. Even though the author does go over previous events, I think readers would benefit more from reading them for themselves in Twinkle Twinkle Little Lies.
Rob Ashman is an author who grabs you by the throat and does not let you go until you are suddenly cast aside at the end. He also leaves you desperate for more, so just be warned! I don’t know what it is but nothing beats a serial killer more than a female one. I suppose it’s because it’s usually dominated by men so it’s quite refreshing for a female to play that role and the author is one who can create the most twisted of characters.
I loved that Valerie makes her decisions on the toss of a coin. I felt slightly guilt for being disappointed if the coin didn’t fall a certain way which saved a victims life. It’s fiction though and where would the fun be without a murder or two? We also get to see more of Malice and Pieterson and things are not going great for either of them. Pieterson for one is struggling with her mental health and dealing with her actions whilst Malice is having to deal with someone new being in his ex’s and daughters life.
Heads Or Tails is another fast paced, compulsive read of which after how it ends, I am desperate for the next book in the series. I need it now! It’s yet another dark, twisted and in part gruesome read which did not fail to shock and surprise me. I blooming well loved it! This is a must read series for readers who love their crime thrillers on the very dark side. Highly recommended!
My thanks to the author for an advanced readers copy of this book. All opinions are my own and not biased in anyway.
