Such a great addition to the Kate Marshall series. Love how Kate was vulnerable in this one, a little unsure of herself. Great story even though I had it figured out early on.

Definitely recommend this series.

Thank you #netgalley and #ravenstreetpublishing for the eARC.

Thank you NetGalley and Raven Street Publishing for the copy of Devil’s Way. I love the Kate Marshall series and this was no exception. It can be read as a standalone, but I loved seeing how Kate and Tristan’s partnership has evolved and how Kate has grown and changed. A chance encounter with Jean in the hospital leads them to investigate a missing person case from 11 years ago. What follows is a whirlwind of clues that don’t add up and it takes smarts, hard work, and luck for Kate and Tristan to start to put it all together. This was a great story that you will love!

Another instalment of Kate Marshall PD that didn’t disappoint. Kate stumbles across her next case when she finds herself in an unfortunate situation. Her and Justin begin investigating and as you can imagine there are the usual and also the unexpected twists and turns throughout the case.
Robert Bryndza writing really brings you into the characters so much so you find yourself knowing them inside and out. There’s such a depth to them that having followed Kate from the start you are willing her to succeed. That said you could equally pick this title up and read it not having know the characters as their back story is told along the reading journey enough for you to not be lost about the character had you read it as a stand-alone.
Excellent storyline, excellently written by an excellent author… next please !

Another investigation for Kate and Tristan. This series just goes from strength to strength, I love their friendship and work ethics.
In this enthralling read, Kate and Tristan take on the cold case of a missing 3 year old. Hired by his Grandmother Jean, Charlie went missing 11 years previously whilst on a camping trip.
From the beginning of the case we're taken on a rollercoaster of a ride as they try to discover what happened to Charlie on that fateful night. Another great book by Robert Bryndza

Devil’s Way by Robert Bryndza is the fourth in the Kate Marshall Crime Thriller series. This book is set in Dartmoor and Exmoor and sets the tone for a dark and chilling scene fitting for the reported death of a three year old boy.. The boy was camping with his parents and grandmother and the boy left the tent at some point and was never seen again. Kate and Tristan have been asked to look into the disappearance of Charlie and find out for sure that he is dead..
They uncover death and kidnapping and lies and deceit, there re many twists and turns before the climax of the novel I enjoyed reading this latest Kate Marshall book and look forward to reading many more of the authors books.
Highly recommended

The storyline was very interesting and kept me glued to my Kindle! I will definitely recommend reading this book as it was well worth reading! Thank you Netgalley and the publisher for sharing this book with me!

This is my second book by Robert Bryndza in the Kate Marshall series which is fast becoming one of my favourites.

In this book, Kate gets into trouble when she hits a riptide on her daily swim and is hospitalised. Whilst in hospital she strikes up a conversation with another patient who tells Kate that her grandson went missing 13 years ago (as a three year old) when they were camping.

Kate and her partner Tristan take on the case and try to uncover what happened all those years ago...

What I love about Bryndza's writing and stories is their simplicity. This may be a criticism for others however I dislike books which are just unrealistic twist after unrealistic twist forcing the reader to suspend disbelief whilst reading. The author here tells an excellent story in a linear timeline, building upon the characters and storyline.

Oh my word what a fantastic read. I couldn’t put it down. Another story about Kate and Tristan and their Private Investigation business. They get hired by Jean whose grandson disappeared years ago on a camping trip on Dartmoor. She’s convinced he’s still alive even though she had him declared dead. There are so many twists and turns. I love the short story part. Kate gets into trouble when she’s out on her morning swim. I don’t want to give anything away. I’m sorry I’ve read it so quickly as I really want to read more but all good things must come to an end. I can’t wait for the next one

Wow what a book, Kate Marshall is back with a bang! After reading the first three I could not wait to get stuck into the fourth.

After almost drowning in a rip tide, Kate meets a lady while recovering in hospital who wants her to find out what happened to her granson Charlie, who went missing when he was three years old.

With lots of twists and turns along the way, Kate and Tristan solve a murder and find out what happened to Charlie.

I raced through this book, finishing it in a day

I’d like to thank netgalley and the publisher for an advance copy in exchange for an honest review. I have been a huge fan of this author since I found his Erika Foster books. This time we follow Kate Marshall and her partner, Tristan after she suffers an accident and winds up in hospital. There she meets Jean, a woman who’s grandson disappeared on a camping trip over a decade and has never been found. We follow Kate and Tristan while they try to find out if Charlie is still alive and why is everyone so secretive about where they were at the time. Another interesting read I couldn’t put down.

Robert Bryndza and his wonderful creations, Kate and Tristan, have done it again - delivered a clever mystery with plenty of twists and details. The characters are, as always, completely credible and the careful handling of the interactions at the end of the novel are really well done. Robert Bryndza has created a compelling world here and each book in this series just adds to his well earned reputation as one of today’s foremost crime writers. Taking his place next to the likes to Robotham and Billingham, Robert Bryndza never fails to deliver.

In the fourth Kate Marshall thriller, the PI is recuperating from a near death experience when she almost drowns during a swim. While at the hospital, Kate strikes up a conversation with Jean, another patient who talks about her then three year old grandson, who disappeared on a camping trip eleven years before. Kate agrees to take on the case, to try to what happened to the kittle boy, but she soon discovers that Jean didn’t tell her everything. Something in Jean’s past could be the reason the little boy was taken – or worse. I love this series, Kate is a strong and believable character who doesn’t shy from dark or ugly cases, she does what needs doing to solve her case
