Fifteen years ago, five vulnerable teenagers took part in a life-changing study of OCD. Now, their psychologist has been brutally stabbed & left for dead. DCI Liz Field and her team have barely started their investigation when there is another frenzied attack.This time, the victim is one of the former patients - are the others now in grave danger – or dangerous? As the DCI is pulled deeper into the disturbing case, it starts to hits too close to home. To outwit the murderer, Field must venture into the last place she wants to – her own buried past…
This was a book that I knew I wanted to read from the first read of the synopsis, and I wasn’t left disappointed by any means!
As the first book in a new series, we are introduced to the cast of characters, and they are a strong group, the writing clearly identifying that there is more than meets the eye to them all. And who doesn’t love that dangling of a carrot to know what’s coming next?
The descriptive writing style does a fabulous job of setting the scene with the character traits & personalities, alongside a gripping case to be solved, that really interestingly delved into the world of OCD. I for one, was unaware of just some of the affliction’s that can make daily tasks such an ordeal, ones that a lot of us probably take for granted, & applaud the way the author provided so much in-depth knowledge, it definitely added another layer to the twists & turns of the case.
Always love a good detective thriller series & this is most definitely one - and wow that ending was completely unexpected! I was convinced I had it all figured out halfway through but was very pleased to be proven wrong! Hannah you have me hooked, roll on book two!
