His heart has been cut out and delivered to his wife and children. He is the first victim, and Detective Inspector Helen Grace knows he will not be the last. But why would a happily married man be this far from home in the dead of night? The media call it Jack the Ripper in reverse: a serial killer preying on family men who lead hidden double lives.

This is the second book in the Detective Helen Grace series and I love this series! It‘s been awhile since I read the first one but I definitely plan on reading the rest of the series ASAP! This is definitely one of my favorite series!

Suzze Why did I think that was the first in the series? I must have read them out of order. Just checked. I‘m wrong. I read the first one and read this one immediately after. (edited) 2y
NikkiKey94 @Suzze I‘m glad you didn‘t read them out of order. I hate when that happens to me! I hope you enjoyed them as much as I did! 2y

LoverOfLearning I have the first 4 books on my shelf..... but i DNFd book 3 and have been unable to pick it back up. Idk the storylines and the types of criminals arnt realstic to me. So I'm not sure I'll ever finish it. But I'm so glad you like them!!! 2y
NikkiKey94 @LoverOfLearning there‘s nothing wrong with that! We all have different tastes in books! I‘ve found several hyped up books that I just did not like! 2y
MyNamesParadise I think I have the first six in this series and never read them but heard great things! I‘m not sure how many books there are in the series! 1y

This is turning into a really good police procedural series which has everything you'd expect in terms of fast pace, grim crime scenes and a shocking reveal.

I flew through this in just a few days. Although its part of a series it could be read as a standalone.

Four stars.

I loved this ❤ Second book in the Helen Grace series and it was a great read, very graphic at points so not for the faint hearted but I think they're great books.

Read for a challenge; didn‘t care for the main character enough to continue with any of the other books in the series.

This second book sees DI Helen Grace investigating gruesome murders similar to the Jack the Ripper killings, only this time a prostitute is killing men who lead double lives.

Although an engrossing read, the male characters are all portrayed as either weak, violent, abusive, sexual predators, or selfish. It was depressing after a while. Also Grace continues to act unprofessionally at times.

Rating: 2 ⭐️

I loved being back in the world of DI Helen Grace in the second of this series. I love the style of writing! Easy to read, gripping, well told stories that keep me intrigued throughout! I‘d say this series is definitely best read in order though to avoid spoilers.

Thank you sooooo much @BookwormAHN I love everything! 3 of the books were on my TBR and the other one I haven‘t heard about. I‘m so excited about Pop Goes the Weasel that I started read the first couple of chapters. I love the BB-8 too!!! (My first Starwars Fp) He is going on my bookshelf right away so he can be displayed. The tote bag is amazing as well! Thank you so much again for everything!!! I am very excited about everything!!!! 💕💕💕

Another addictive read from M.J.Arlidge. This book was really hard to put down. A fast paced plot that sucks you into the characters. It has a clever twist at the end which I wasn't expected. Defiantly worth a read if you enjoy psychological thrillers, lots of action, twists and detail.

Another gritty, fast-paced crime thriller from M. J. Arlidge. This time with a serial killer described as Jack the Ripper in reverse. This series certainly does not disappoint.

Just as compelling and unputdownable as the first! I'm raring to race through the rest of the series.

Think I can get through these before Liar Liar is delivered tomorrow? I enjoyed Eeny Meeny enough to take the plunge on the rest of the series. M. J. don't let me down!

When you would rather be in bed reading than getting up early for a meeting at work.
