The Close by Jane Casey

medium-paced

4.5

I love reading thriller books and the close by Jane Casey definitely does not disappoint! I bought this last year at the Ennis Book festival after hearing Jane Casey on a panel and I also loved her book The Killing Kind. The close is a Maeve Kerrigan mystery and is the tenth book in that series, however you don't have to have read the other ones to read this one. This was the first I picked up in this series and it definitely won't be my last as I enjoyed it so much! Definitely going to read the others!

The Close is set in Jellicoe Close a seemingly perfect suburban street - well kept houses with pristine lawns, perfect families and friendly neighbours. But there are dark secrets behind the nest front doors, including a hidden criminal. DS Maeve Kerrigan and DI Josh Derwent go undercover as a couple housesitting for a friend in order to uncover the truth about the crimes in Jellicoe. 

I loved Maeve and Josh in this! I loved their relationship and the will they won't they get together theme throughout! Such an engaging plot throughout with very enjoyable characters!Overall I really enjoyed this one and I'll definitely be picking up more of the Maeve Kerrigan series
