No Turning Back by Sam Blake
4.0
'No Turning Back' is the third in the Cathy Connolly trilogy. I've raced through this series, having only started on the first book, 'Little Bones' earlier this week.
Cathy or Cat is a Detective constable in the Garda Siochana, the Irish police service and is mainly based at the station out in Dun Laoghire, Dublin. Cat has proved herself to be both an accomplished and successful officer and has recently returned to the job after an injury, sustained while on duty, lead to her being off work for some time.
Cat is surrounded by a strong supportive circle, including her family, her coach McIntyre (she is a professional kickboxer) and colleagues. She relies on these people to keep her grounded and also out of trouble as her temper can lead her into some dangerous situations.
In 'No Turning Back' , Cat and co, are investigating two very suspicious deaths - one is the victim of a hit & run, while the other may have committed suicide, but the circumstances seem dodgy to the Garda.
Although I read the stories in order, I do not think that reading the stories as standalong would take from your enjoyment or understanding as all the information that we know to know is provided in the story.
