This review was originally posted on Star Crossed Reviews I received this book for free from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.Thank you to Bookouture for my copy of this book via Netgalley. I read the first two books in the series and I am a massive fan of both Detective Dan and Anna-Lou. While this is the third book you could read it as a standalone.

Anna-Lou's detective series is a little different from others. While you get to see the detective and police procedural side you also get to see things from a psychological standpoint. Anna-Lou makes you part of the story by adding in POVs for other key characters who are somehow involved or related to the crime. This time we get to see the POV os Detective Dan, Beth and Cath. It is interesting how the story unfolds and how Beth and Cath have intertwined stories.

Anna-Lou does an excellent job of building suspense and layering the story. As each layer is peeled back there are more and more of them.

As I have already said I love Detective Dan. Not only is he a hottie he also does the right thing. He's a good detective and he keeps his promises. I absolutely cannot wait to see what happens next in the world of Detective Dan!
