Dead Souls by Angela Marsons

5.0

Dead Souls is part of the DI Kim Stone series, I wouldn’t say that it was essential to have read the others as this one works very well as a stand alone.

What I loved about this story is there are a couple of threads running alongside each other. We have the very taught working relationship between Kim and Travis. The pair seem to be at logger heads but there is obviously more to it than first seems. Discovering what exactly, makes for seriously intriguing reading. The other is the actual case they are working on.

I don’t want to say to much about the case itself with it not being mentioned in the book description but lets just say I don’t think you could get more of a current crime sadly than there is in todays world. It’s good to see an author tackling the subject and it was good to get inside characters head to see why they are doing what they are.

Stacey really stands out in this novel. She is supposed to be helping the team but starts to take matters into her own hands by doing some investigating of her own. Not always a good idea as she soon starts to realise.

Dead Souls is just another gripping and current read from one of my favourite crime writers. There is no wonder her books are doing amazingly well. Her novels just seem to be in a league of their own and as always I can’t wait to read more.

My Thanks to Netgalley and Bookouture for an advanced copy of the book. All opinions are my own and not biased in anyway.
