The Promise by Katerina Diamond
4.0
This book was a gift and it turns out it was the third book to a book series I’ve never read. So i think there was a missing backstory to some of the characters, but it seemed to be fairly separate in terms of the storyline.
This crime thriller novel followed DS Imogen Grey and BS Adrian Miles on the case of discovering there is a serial killer in town who likes to strangle his victims. The book follows there case as well as the life of Connor who is new in town.
It seemed as if every single person mentioned in the book gad experience some kind of heartbreak, some kind of trauma in their lives. As if a reminder that there is always more to people than meets the eye, and there is ALWAYS some kind of internal/external struggle we know nothing about. It also explores a very real, potential risks associated with social media and online dating!
I absolutely loved the read as i found myself flicking back and fourth between the pages trying to solve the case before the detectives (obviously i did). The language used is so easy to follow and the story flows so well. I probably will be trying to read the rest of the books as it want to get to know the characters more. I really hope there is another book after this one that explores this case further because ahh. I was thinking about the book DAYS after i finished it and ended up having a dream about the storyline.
So if you’re some that loves serial killers (not like IN love with them but more so the intrigue... idk how to explain it aha) or just like a good crime novel, i think you’d enjoy this read. With both cute moments and terrifying moments , this is an intense read
