I received an ARC of this novel in exchange for an honest review from. Netgalley.
Holy. Mother. Of. Pearl. This book was fantastic. The author is new to me, but I have already acquired some of his other works. His writing style is not overly rambling and gets to the point. Words are not wasted in this novel, but it was so fast paced and twisty and turny that I truly had no idea what was coming.
What started out as two investigations into the deaths of teenage girls 46 years apart weaves the tale of how sometimes you can't outrun the bad you've done, even when it seems like the world has forgotten.
The character of DI Annie is a wonderful protagonist, and I can't wait to see where her further adventures will take her and her colleagues Zoe and Andy.
