A review by samharnold
The Crossing Places by Elly Griffiths

4.0

I can’t quite remember who recommended this book. I know I read about it on a forum and thought it sounded worth a read. The same of it is if I could remember I would like to thank them as this book is well worth any recommendation. For the first novel from the writer it shows a maturity some writers take ages to achieve. The characters are well designed and have the perfect amount of human flaws in them. The book has an easy story line which is east to follow unlike some more in-depth crime writers that you need a degree to understand. My only disappointment came at the end of the book when you discover that some of the locations described are imaginary, I had booked my holiday to explore them in person.

The best recommendation for a book is when you want to read the next and I am already on the hunt for the next offering. Don’t you just love it when you find another author to become excited about.
