Nadine Matheson

Fantastic police procedure that doesn�Ûªt follow the same ol‰Ûª mold. Picking up where The Jigsaw Man ended, I found it really authentic that a lot of the characters were struggling with PTSD and traumatic experiences. The investigation was interesting and although I guessed some parts, other reveals were quite intriguing. Definitely a series I‰Ûªd recommend!

I also appreciated that nothing seemed overly far-fetched, which is something I find problematic in a lot of criminal investigation shows/novels.
(Like the detective goes ‰ÛÏoff book‰Û or doesn‰Ûªt follow proper protocol and never deals with the repercussions. Or the crimes/solutions are just so off-the-wall that it seems unlikely like one detective would have such a high probability of getting all these unique and bizarre cases. )… (mais)

I like how twisty this police procedural was, just when you think you have it figured out, surprise, you do not! I love that the officers are dealing (in their own ways) with the aftermath of the attacks that took place in The Jigsaw Man and the effects aren't being ignored or hidden away. I love that Nadine has her characters talk about real life issues like PTSD, infidelity, etc. while focusing on solving the crimes, it makes the characters real. Looking forward to book #3 in the Inspector Anjelica Henley series expected to be published summer 2023.… (mais)
