A review by kartrick
Sanctuary by Celina Grace
3.0
It is not one of the usual detective stories, which focus majorly on twists and the crime factor. And although one of the reviews informed me that this story in the Kate Redman series deals much less with Kate on a personal level and involves little of her side stories and introspection compared to the other stories, I was able to get a taste of that from what I read. And truth be told, I am not too sure if that has to be a negative.
The crime itself (and its solution) wasn't too impressive, but at the same time was not boring. Somehow, I breezed through the book and was left with a slight urge to start the series from the beginning. Recently I have been wanting to read more European stories (yes, I am aware British is as European as tomatoes are a fruit) to sort of soak in the autumn and winter vibes in all their glory, and I reckon that a detective series of multiple parts with a female protagonist, set in the same location would be a good choice.
Honestly, I'm still not getting the vibes I have in my head, but hey - I'm a sucker for murder novels so let's see!
