My Review:
Deadly Revenge is another enthralling and completely absorbing addition to this fantastic series which just keeps getting better. I was gripped from the first page and finished the book in a couple of days as I just couldn’t stop reading.
It was so nice to be back with Geraldine and to follow her on another fascinating case. I felt so sorry for her with her demotion and felt that she was wholly unappreciated at her job. Once again there is an interesting story about her personal life running alongside the crime story which I thought worked well. As always one of the highlights of the book was the hilarious banter and interactions between the detectives which helped bring some light relief to the story.
The crime storyline was also very interesting and I liked that despite looking like an open and shut case the author was able to keep me guessing as to what had happened. The subject matter is quite emotional and some of the descriptions were quite harrowing as the author tells it how it is rather than trying to save the readers feelings. The end took me completely by surprise as I didn’t expect it to end that way.
Huge thanks to Anne Cater for inviting me onto the blog tour and to No Exit Press for my copy of this book via Netgalley.
