Just when I thought it couldn’t get better it does! The characters are great and only a few make really dumb choices. Most say I’m happy the one person that caused me to slap my forehead seems to come out on the other side okay. I couldn’t wait to get to the end of this and was ecstatic to learn this is a series! Can’t wait to start the next one.

Is murder something that can be handed down from parents to child? Sinister events are at play, but who is the killer!?! Lots of twists and turns in this novel, and it keeps you guessing, though it is possible to guess who the killer is before the reveal. Richard Armitage is a good narrator with a timbrous voice that suits reading crime novels.

Did enjoy the Audible version of this book, thought the plot was quite fast paced with different threads weaving together nicely, although I did think it was quite easy to work out the perp earlier in the book than I would have liked (although you don't learn why until the end).

3.5 stars. This was an engaging start to a detective series. The audio narrator was excellent!
