When the Dead Come Calling: The Burrowhead Mysteries by Helen Sedgwick
3.0
This book is the first in the Burrowhead Mysteries series and is set is the sleepy town of Burrowhead where not much is going on. Although the story starts with a murder it’s definitely not your usual crime novel as there’s a supernatural element running throughout the book that I still don’t fully understand!
I feel like this book is setting the scene for the books that follow it in the series but it mainly left me feeling confused! It took until half way through the book before I had any idea what was going on and it wasn’t until the very end of the book before you get a few bits of information that hint to where the story is going.
It’s a well written book and very atmospheric - the village is definitely the star of the show. It has left me wanting to find out what happens next but will I find out more in the next book or still be left questioning?
