Escreva uma avaliaçãoMoody, thought-provoking, sad and true to life. A tightly written and fast moving novel. I hope to see more from the character of Jain in the future.
Absolutely loved this book from start to finish. I live in the same area this book is based so it was fascinating and exciting to hear places referred to that I could actually picture in my mind's eye. The character development was cleaver and enjoyable. A genuine page turner!!! Looking forward to the next piece of work from the author.
I really enjoyed this story. The characters are cleverly constructed with an intimate knowledge of modern crime investigation that takes you on a journey into the dark corners of the human mind. The Author has weaved multiple character viewpoints into a suspenseful and gripping tale, that will stay with you long after you have finished reading it.
A story that ends in a way that you would not have predicted. The mystery becomes something a lot more simple but the effects of the tale should leave you thinking.
Revelar SpoilerA detective where the obvious villain might not be so obvious and there is no happy ending. Quite a sad book. The theme of depression can triggering so be warned.
