Dead Money: An Exhilarating and Page-Turning Crime Thriller by Keith Nixon

4.0

I've heard great things about Keith Nixon, so couldn't pass up the opportunity to read his latest!
This is the second book in the Pennance series, and I do think my enjoyment would have been stronger had I read the first, but there is enough backstory here to read it as a standalone.
This book starts off a little slow for me, but does pick up in the middle, and from there I couldn't put it down!
Pennance is a great character- funny and very clever. His relationship with the others are great to read, and when his loyalties are tested I felt for them all. Nixon writes tension wonderfully, and as police procedurals go, I really enjoyed this. I look forward to the next installment!
