I have already seen and loved the TV show and after getting into this, I just want to watch the TV show again instead of reading this. I feel like this is a format that will work better for me as a show, especially because I already know the story and remember where it ends up

I did watch Broadchurch and I really like it so I was happy to review this book.

I really enjoy this book and even though I already knew what was going to happen it kept me reading and I was hooked on this book and couldn't stop reading. It is very well written and I think if you like crime drama you will love this book.

I give this 5 out of 5

Well - that was one heck of any ending! I don't want to spoil it for anyone, but I will say I did not see it coming. Author Erin Kelly threw out plenty of red herrings to keep the reader guessing and forming theories about who killed 11-year-old Danny Latimer. The mix of characters was interesting, and the setting of the small, tightly knit English seaside town added to the intensity of the drama. The rivalry between Ellie Miller and the new mysteriously flawed detective Alec Hardy added to the plot. A good mystery!
