The Rising Tide by Ann Cleeves

5.0

The Rising Tide” by Ann Cleeves it's the 10th instalment in the Vera Stanhope Mystery Series , a powerful novel about guilt, betrayal, and the longheld secrets people keep. I love the Vera Mystery series and this instalment did not disappoint. In fact, I thought that it was one of the best in the series.

The Series is character-driven and also very descriptive you feel like you are right there in Northumbria, England. In this instalment we get to catch up with Vera and her team, as they try to unravel the secrets a group of friends had been keeping that play a big part in the present murder.

We had lots of suspects but I did guess just before it was revealed. There was a surprise at the very end, which I can’t wait to see what happens with the team dynamics.

I highly recommend this book and the Vera Stanhope Mystery series to all my British Mystery loving friends.

I requested and received an Advanced Readers Copy from the publisher and Netgalley. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
