A review by sarahclementss
Splinter in the Blood by Ashley Dyer

dark mysterious tense medium-paced

4.5

This was more disturbing than I thought it was going to be. The whole premise of the murders and the last 100 pages of the book were quite thrilling. I appreciated all of the different forensic elements in the book and how it was written as if you were closely following the police investigation. I found Ruth’s POV fascinating because of her curious and strong-willed nature. I didn’t expect many of the twists that happened which kept me wanting to read the next chapter (I couldn’t put down the last 50 pages). 

My only comments would be that Greg’s POV in the beginning was a bit drawn out and boring and the final ending felt a bit rushed. I had a hunch who the killer might have been and was correct, but I wasn’t as disappointed guessing it as there were many red herrings.
