Loved this Series

I loved this series! Full of twist and turns in the plot. I was given this free review copy audio book at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Better

Although I loved the setting of the Greek Isles for the last book, I liked the variation of 'coming back home.' It helps give the main character, DS Abby Foulkes some depth and backstory. There are some great secondary characters that are lacking in the first book. This book felt a bit more real although there is still a British Nancy Drewness about her. I find it interesting that I have not rated this book as well as some that I liked far less. I think it is because the potential for this series to get much much better is real and I want to save some 'stars' for that.. Also I tend to rate within the genre which gives a great cozy mystery the same ranking as I would give Louise Penny even though Ms Penny's books blow any cozy out of the water. Enough justification! I really liked this book as I did the first - I heard some very good improvements in this second book one of which is the narrator. Much better!

Wow! I couldn't put it down!

I really enjoyed the first one in the series and this one was better. It grabbed me and I had a hard time putting it down. My only complaint is that this one has a very bloody tale to tell. So as a caution if you have a hard time with details in bloody crime scenes then you may want to avoid this one... if that isn't a problem for you then this was a fast and intriguing read. I stayed up until 1:30 am to finish this one because toward the end it was simply too hard to stop. I'm now ready to start the third one. The narrator also did a wonderful job.
