My review of Their Fatal Secrets by Janice Frost

Today I am delighted to be taking part in the blog tour for Their Fatal Secrets by Janice Frost!

Two students coming home from a drunken night out see something strange in the river. It is a young woman’s body.

Hours later, a second young woman’s body is discovered on another stretch of the same river.

DS Ava Merry and DI Jim Neal are assigned to both investigations. And they’re joined by a new detective, Tom Knight.

Soon a connection is found between the two dead women. A list of “victims” is discovered in one of their flats. Who will be next and what really happened to the women on this sinister list?

In a thrilling conclusion, Jim Neal fights for his life as the two detectives struggle to solve a complex case involving people with secrets that may prove fatal.

If you like Angela Marsons, Rachel Abbott, Ruth Rendell, or Mark Billingham you will be gripped by this exciting new crime fiction writer.

MY REVIEW

I though that this book was great and it really gripped me – I loved the pace and the plot was spot on, I loved the detail and the characters of Ava and Jim were brilliant – I thoroughly enjoyed the whole book and have given it 5 stars!

This is the first book that I have read by this author but I will be looking to read the first three books in the series ASAP. I read this one as a stand alone and I don’t feel that I was missing out but I would like to read more about the other cases that they have solved to get a further understanding of the back stories for the characters – a fab read!
