Little Sister by Gytha Lodge
5.0

4.5 stars.

Wow! This was incredible. I honestly didn’t know much about the author or the story, but Little Sister really exceeded my expectations.

The fact that I didn’t even realise this was part of a series shows the fantastic attention to detail and strong writing style. Nothing was confusing and there were no complicated colleague back stories to which I wasn’t privy.

The concept for this one was brilliant; I initially thought there were mistakes in the book but once I understood I was impressed with the idea and pleased that I’d spotted the clues.

I’m also in awe of an author who can write such a gripping crime novel with so few bodies! Again, this is testament to the excellent plot that flows well and really keeps you hooked.

Characters are interesting, intriguing and complicated. Yet the victims are very much at the heart of the story, rather than the detectives. This approach works so well because you feel immersed in the story and it’s much easier to empathise with their situation.

The downside is that I now need to go to book one and read them all, which is hardly good for my wallet…
