Detective Field is called to a scene where a man who has several stab wounds.  The man was successfully taken to hospital but later died from his wounds.  The man had a ripped page from a document that had details of a medial trial which involved OCD patients several years ago. The man who was named David now a lecturer oversaw the trial. When a woman is also discovered dead, they discover that she was one of the patients on that trial and the others Lily and Calum that don’t live that far away was also on that trial. Can Detective Field find the murderer before it’s too late and another body turns up. 

No safe place is the debut novel by Hannah Brennan and the first in the Detective Liz field series and I can say this is a compelling read. This has a good storyline and great characters especially detective Field. 

The storyline was also a learning experience for me when I read about the different types of OCD as I wasn’t aware of them. I only thought there was one type. 

I can’t wait to see how this author develops and the next book in this series. 4 stars from me.
