My 6P review: Publication, Plot, People, Place, Prose/Pace, Praise
Detective Joe Lucchesi has moved to a quiet village in Ireland after a routine investigation in New York came to a violent end. When a girl goes missing in the village, everybody closes ranks. Joe sets out to find the truth in order to protect his family. It ultimately leads him back to the USA.
The story is told in two timelines from two POVs. It is not done well. It is very difficult to determine where we are in the timeline. There are just too many characters and too much going on.
The story is very complex and enthralling. it was more than enough to keep me reading. It wasn’t an easy read mind you.
Because there were so many characters, none of them were really fleshed out. The story of Katie going missing also gets lost in the other back stories and isn’t really told.
I actually enjoyed the lighthouse setting and all the work that Anna was doing on it to restore it to its former glory.
The author used a lot of red herrings and suspense which kept me guessing but because there was just too much going on, I won’t be continuing this series as I really don’t care enough for the characters.
The cover of the book was amazing.
Not a bad read but not one I would necessarily recommend to others.
2.5⭐️
