This book was full of everything I wanted to read. Unfortunately it took me a while to actually get into the book. But I enjoyed it

DI Kate Young is called to investigate when a young man is found on a station platform with a hole in his head. As more bodies pile up, she races to find the killer. Kate also must deal with her own demons, determined to expose corruption after her husband's death. Another good entry to the series - thrilling plot and keeps you turning the pages until the end. Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for an advance copy of the book in return for my honest feedback.

It starts with one body, a man found with a hole in his head at a train station, but DI Kate Young soon finds herself awash in victims, all seemingly killed by the same person. With nothing apparent connecting the victims, the search for the killer becomes even more difficult. Are these just random killings? While she struggles with the case, she’s still actively trying to bring down crooked police Superintendent John Dickson, but how deep does the corruption run in the police force and is Kate risking her life trying to find out? I love this series, Kate is a beautifully flawed protagonist and Wyer’s background storylines are just as fascinating as the foremost plot

This is a book of mystery and intrigue…after reading the prologue, I became so confused, it took me forever to ascertain what was going on in this book…I maintain the mystery should be the murder…not determine which characters are which…the author has woven a story of intrigue, but getting to the gist of it took awhile…I do look forward to other books by this author…try this one…enjoy…the book was sent to me electronically for review from Netgalley.
