All the Dark Places by Terri Parlato

5.0

New author for me and I am really looking forward to reading more from her in the future. This was a very well executed debut novel.

The story is told through alternating POV of Molly , the victim’s wife, and Rita , the primary detective on the case. Rita is brought to life so well & written in such a way that you can relate to her on many levels. She is quite likable and I hope to see her potentially investigate in future books too. Molly is not the wisest decision maker in the face of her husband’s death but I think her poor judgment can primarily be attributed to trauma and grief making a mess of her mind.

Overall I thought the pacing was great and the introduction of the intertwined stories was well carried out . The characters, the story and the scenery were all brought to life well by the authors descriptions . This is a book I would definitely recommend to others.
