Dead End by Rachel Lynch
4.0
I kept waiting for the two stories to overlap. They did but not in the way I was expecting. I love it when I’m wrong! I haven’t read the previous 2 books but I enjoyed this so much I picked them up at the weekend. I liked Kelly. I could sympathise with her family relations a lot. From a professional standpoint it’s great to see a strong female lead with a team that are supportive and equally strong. I’ve read so many crime books where the female lead is still subject to misogyny so I really enjoyed the dynamics of the team.
The setting is gorgeous. I’ve been to the Lakes and could so easily imagine where I was reading about. They are almost another character in the book. The 2 storylines kept me engrossed to the end. A few of the characters could be the bad guys and all of them are quite horrible so it’s no surprise when one of them is the right one.
If I had one complaint the books finished quite abruptly/ A lot of the arrests & action takes place ‘off book’ and you don’t read it. I would have liked a bit more on that but I’m nit picking. Overall loved it and looking forward to reading the others.
