THIS REVIEW CONTAINS MANY SPOILERS

As I was reading this book it felt like a part two in a series and then I came to realize it is! Nowhere does it indicate that this is part of a series but here is book one under the author’s other name, Suzi Holliday. This made me very upset as I felt lost when they were talking about an older case with a photographer who may have been wrongfully convicted by a false confession. I was so confused! We pretty much know who the killer is right away and her boyfriend figures out what she’s doing immediately…oh ya and he’s kind of a stalker.

This was also just way too over the top for me. I mean there were things done that just weren’t plausible. Stealing drugs from a pharmaceutical company, no passwords on computers, manipulating medical staff. I didn’t buy it. My aunt is in a care home for dementia patients and it is locked up like Fort Knox. There were many coincidences I didn’t buy into either like the murderer’s mother and the cop’s mother are in the same care home and the murderer’s pharmaceutical company is testing their drugs there as well. The police find clues very easily and very quickly. And of course, the female cop gets all googly-eyed over her partner. BARF! I didn’t like this holiday thriller at all.

Sharing is caring!
