This review was originally posted on Star Crossed Reviews I received this book for free 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 letting me take part in this tour and for my copy of this book via netgalley. This is the third book in the Detective Blake series but each one can be read as a standalone.

In this book, we follow Jessie Blake as she tries to uncover the truth in the murder of the Angus'. Jessie is an easy character to root for. You can tell she has a dark past before it's even revealed. She is a determined and hard-working detective. We find out more about her past in this instalment and I hope that even more will be revealed in the next book.

Another favourite character of mine is Jessie's partner Dylan. Dylan is a good man, he's an excellent father and a hard-working detective.

The story itself had lots of twists and turns. It kept me guessing all the way through. As well as uncovering the murderer this book also deals with lots of other issues domestic abuse, sexual abuse and mental health. Kerry deals with these issues in a sensitive way while still showing the seriousness of these.

Kerry had me gripped from the prologue to the epilogue and I cannot wait to return to the world of Jessie Blake!
