The Tattoo Thief by Alison Belsham

1.0

As a big fan of Chris Carter's Robert Hunter series, this book seemed like it would be right up my street. The first few chapters really drew me in, but unfortunately it didn't live up to my expectations. It was very cliché in parts, and some characters and scenarios felt downright unbelievable. As a type 1 diabetic myself, I was initially excited to see the inclusion of the condition in one of the characters, only to find out very quickly that once again (as in most other forms of media entertainment) no proper research has been done and very basic facts about our condition and treatment were incorrect (e.g. the suggestion that diabetics need insulin when our blood sugar is going low). I really wanted to love it, but ended up feeling disappointed.
