This is the first book I read by this author and won’t surely be the last because I appreciated the solid mystery, the storytelling.
It’s a gripping story, full of twists and turns, and I was hooked since the beginning.
Lesley is an interesting character, a no-nonsense woman who doesn’t suffer fool gladly. She’s clever and strong willed, the right person to change a team comfortably set in a routine.
She’s facing a new team, a sort of old-boy-club. They are not ready to accept women in their club and one of them is a religious fanatic who let his prejudice impact his work.
Even if the team is undergoing a revolution their detective work will bring the culprit to justice.
The mystery is solid and kept me guessing. There’s plenty of clues, red herring and I wasn’t able to guess –who-did-it.
Even if it’s a spin-off from another stories it can be read as a standalone as there’s plenty of back story.
I can’t wait to read the next story because there’s a sort of cliff-hanger at the end of the story (not regarding the mystery part) and I want to know what will be next.
Gripping, entertaining and well written, I strongly recommend it.
