Splinter in the Blood by Ashley Dyer
3.0
this book is very much a typical murder mystery with heavy police/detective involvement. while the description and the beginning of the book are *supposed* to hook you, it kind of just fell flat for me. with a lot of books i love, i’m always dying to know what happens next, but this didn’t really happen for me while reading this book.
a detective who is investigating a serial killer is shot in his home and for the longest time i thought it was his partner that did it. maybe it was just me but certain parts of the book felt a little choppy and left me confused and then it made perfect sense to me that it was actually written by two people under one pseudonym. when something significant was revealed i was kind of just like “oh, cool i guess?” and i think it was because i wasn’t really following what was going on the whole time and parts of it were dragging on so i got distracted
