⚠️ CW: gun violence, death, murder, domestic violence, homophobia, misogyny, suicide, mentions of sexual assault and animal cruelty ⚠️ If you're looking for an incredible action packed thriller that will keep you guessing until the very end then you need to read this book! This book follows ex-police negotiator Laura Hart as she rejoins the force as a DI. On her first day an anonymous tip off leads to the discovery of a skeleton in a crumbling castle ruin near Beumaris, Anglesey. Laura can't wait to prove herself by solving the case and when the investigation leads to the MI5 and the Real IRA she knows she's on the trail of something truly explosive. But some people will do anything to stop their secrets coming out. And with the threat drawing in and her family yet again in danger this time Laura starts to wonder if she's in too deep. I absolutely adored this book and how it followed on from book 1, as well as giving us an amazing new case to be gripped by! The story is told through a dual timeline that really immerses you deep into the storyline and the characters. It is one of those books that you really need to concentrate on while reading though because it has a lot of plot points, characters and twists but trust me it is so worth it. Overall, I cannot recommend this book highly enough and I can't wait to get my hands on book 3 when it comes out in June!

Another great read!

I loved the first book and was so pleased to read the second in the Anglesey Series.

The characters are engaging and the story is interesting. Probably best read in sequence due to the nature of the relationships between characters.

Many thanks to the author, publisher and NetGalley for gifting me this arc in exchange for an honest, unbiased review.
