This is everything that a detective series should be: the mystery, the characters, the setting, the details that spice up the plot, it's all there. I will certainly be reading more from Katerina Diamond...

I enjoyed this, but not quite as much as I enjoyed ‘The Teacher‘. I found in particular the last few chapters seemed to be written in somewhat of a hurry, with the language becoming more basic and new ideas being scattered hurriedly throughout the writing without being more closely examined. I am hoping that ‘The Angel‘ picks up where this left off and is able to explore these new theories more thoroughly🕵🏼‍♀️

madamereadsalot1 And I'm really liking it, even though it isn't my usual genre. 5y
KathrynElise @madamereadsalot1 what‘s your usual genre, out of curiosity? I‘m always keen for new ideas and new reads 🙃 5y
madamereadsalot1 I guess I do read a little of everything, and I'm always willing to try anything. But my go-to genres are horror/thriller, fantasy, and some variation of romance. 5y

CouronneDhiver What kind of gardening do you do - veggies? flowers? 5y
KathrynElise @CouronneDhiver mainly veggies 👩🏼‍🌾 Although there are a few shrubs and flowers scattered in between (mainly hand-me-downs from my Mum, whose thumbs are definitely not green haha) 5y
CouronneDhiver Oh fun 👍🏽 I have a perennial flower garden... not as skilled with veggies 5y
KathrynElise @CouronneDhiver ooohh lovely! 😊 I‘ve always wanted to add more flowers, but have never really liked the idea of flowers in pots (always preferred them to be a little less restrained) 🌷. Unfortunately I‘m stuck with a container garden at the moment so will persist with veggies for now 👍🏼 Plus, you know, food and things 💁🏼‍♀️🍅🥕🥒 5y

This book is full on, there are many story lines going on in many time zones so it's definitely a book you need to concentrate on. There were times that I was a bit confused but in the end it all ties together nicely so it's well worth the effort. This is the second book in the series of DI Grey although I'd say it can be read as a standalone.

Started off well but unfortunately goes downhill with some obvious dovetailing between two cases and a subplot involving Miles‘s ex. Rating: 2 ⭐️

I would definitely recommend this book to lovers of mysteries and thrillers. Diamond really did an excellent job merging all the various storylines and plotted them all together tidily. The ending was left wide open, I can only assume that there will be a third book in the series and I will definitely be checking it out. I really think maybe I need to find time to go back and read book one, maybe I can bump my rating up?
