Trick or Treat by Katerina Diamond
Rating: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Absolutely brilliant.

Another great novel which I really didn’t want to end with it being the last available book of the series. It was written so well that I immersed myself completely into the storyline.

The main one of this book was very complex but expertly researched which gave it such authenticity. With may lines of enquiry weaving through it, I found the pace really kept going with speed as I was compelled to keep reading to see how it all connected. I was wrong. Again.

The secondary storyline has continued through the last three books and although it’s been a really hard read I’ve felt pulled into this narrative so deeply that I felt part of the journey and needed to know how it ended. It’s been a great series and I’ve come to hold the main characters dear to my heart. I can’t wait to dive back into the next book which I’m really hoping won’t be long until it is available.

I didn't realize that this was part of a series, my bad. I'll have to read all the other 6 books before reading this one. I added a 4 star because that's the average that other readers rated it but I'll be updating it as soon as I read it. I received a free digital copy of this book from NetGalley in exchange for my honest review

I'm never excited as when I see that Katerina Diamond has a new book out and as always she never disappoints. After 'Woman in the water' left me reeling and absolutely devastated for Milesy I could not wait for the next instalment and 'Trick or Treat' really sucked me in.

When 6 year old Marcus is kidnapped from his street and the crime is witnessed by teenager Jason, Miles and Grey must get to the bottom of this crime as quickly as possible. As they get deeper into the case we start to see little synchronicities and little threads from previous books sneaking into this case (however you will not need to read the previous books to get the jist of this book). Can they get to the bottom of the secrets that Marcus' family seem to be hiding and how does it link to Adrian's horrific attack?

As always I'm left wanting more and I cannot wait for the next instalment in the series.

Love ,love love it! I just can't get enough of Katrina Diamond just now, she's a brilliant writer and I'm always excited when there's a new story .

Now…This is a hard one for me. This has been on my tbr for ages and I’ve been ignoring it. I’ve read a few in this series already and I love them, the storyline and writing is fantastic. However, I’m terrible with violence, really terrible - I can’t even take someone getting punched type level - makes me all woozy.

In short, these books are for the the exact opposite of readers like me. But..I really love them, I did almost mark this as “DNF” multiple times, but I persevered as usual, and I don’t regret it at all.

This is such an excellent series, it really is, this book is no exception, and if you’re ok with a bit of violence then all then better!

My thanks to Netgalley and Avon, HarperCollins for the advance copy in exchange for an honest review (even though it’s well past it’s date..sorry)

Even though I did buy myself a physical copy of this book, I would still like to thank Netgalley and the publishers for allowing me the opportunity to read this book in exchange for an honest review.

A missing child?
A teen who struggles with life?
And more Imogen Grey??
I'm in!
Another excellent installment to this series. Can't wait for the next.

This was another great book by Katerina Diamond. Full of twists and turns throughout, it will definitely keep you guessing.

What an amazing book!! I cannot recommend this series enough!!!

Trick or Treat is the seventh instalment of the Imogen Grey and Adrian Miles series. I have followed this series and all previous books have been excellent.


This book begins with the abduction of a six year old boy Marcus from his street, right in front of his own house on Halloween. This was witnessed and videoed by a young man named Jason who was originally afraid to come forward to the police as he was also in the middle of committing his own crime of breaking into his ex girlfriends house while she and her family were away on holiday.

What follows is an expertly woven investigation in to the crime, Imogen senses something amiss within the family. I wont reveal any spoilers but this book is definitely worth the read. I find the relationships within the police team well developed and work well together

For fans of the series they will understand the complexities of the relationship between Grey and Miles and hopefully as pleased as I was that he finally explained to her the reasons for his behaviour and what actually happened to him in the previous book 'Woman in the Water'

With thanks to NetGalley, the author and publishers for an ARC copy in return for an honest review

A child disappears in front of a frightened teenager who contacts the police.
When the detective goes to the parents' home, they are in the middle of celebrating the halloween season. They claim that the child is safe.

Thus begins this mysterious and spooky thriller

I loved this book. I have loved all of this authors books. Great story but a couple of things that would not happen in real life, Very fast paced which I love.

This book was a real surprise and a author I will be looking for in the future. I loved it from the first few pages to the end.
I wold would like to thank Katerina Diamond and Net Galley for allowing me to read it .
Be sure to look this up and add it to your reading list .

I loved this thriller by Katerina Diamond. I had no idea it was a part of a series, but I am looking forward to reading more. I loved the twists during the book.

My first book, that I have read by this author, absolutely brilliant! Highly recommended, and I will definitely read others written by this author!

OMG the twists in this book were so good. It has short chapters so it the book flows very easily. This is book seven in the series and I suggest you read them in order. You wont be able to put this book down. Trust me.

Interesting read, huge fan of the author. Pulled in quickly and devoured page after page. I have loved this one.

Trick or Treat begins with kidnap of 6 year old Marcus. But when Imogen Grey turns up to question the parents they deny there's a problem....but if that's the case why can't they explain where Marcus is and the anonymous call reporting the incident? When his desperate mother admits the truth Imogen races to find the boy. But something feels very wrong to her. Why has the witness not come forward? And how is it the kidnappers seem to know so much about Marcus?

A real return to form, this was great from start to finish. There is still maybe a little too much concentration on Adrian and Imogens relationship but it's a lot clearer how their story is developing and how that ties into the story as a whole. But please Katerina Diamond, please stop torturing Adrian! He's one of my favourite sidekicks!

As always not one for the sensitive but a bloody good read.

Wow. Katerina Diamond has done it again! I started the Imogen Grey series in the middle but have enjoyed each one I’ve read, but this one is definitely my favorite! (It is perfectly ok to read this even if you haven’t read her previous books but I highly recommend doing so!!) This book hits the ground running with a 6 year old boy getting kidnapped on Halloween from his front yard. The only witness to it is a teenager who was breaking in to an ex girlfriend’s house across the street and is afraid to come forward. DS Imogen Grey is on the case and she has her work cut out for her. I don’t want to give too much away but just know you’re in for so many creative plot twists that, as an avid reader, I didn’t even see them coming! The last few chapters had me racing through the pages down to the very last word of the book when my jaw dropped. Highly recommend this! And I cannot wait to read the next one in this series.

Trick or Treat by Katerina Diamond Narrated by: Stevie Lacey this book is the seventh in the superb Detective Imogen Grey series and it did not disappoint.

When Detective Imogen Grey is called out to an expensive Exeter street, to visit the child’s house, Marcus's parents deny that their son has been taken. They act as if nothing has happened to him!

OMG!!! Why!!! I know I would be in bits!!!!

What has happened too little Marcus?

Where is he?

This latest book by Katerina Diamond is full of brilliant twists and turns throughout and will have you hooked from the beginning till the end. This series has been a 5 star read. I have loved this and looking forward to the next book in the Detective Imogen Grey series.

I highly recommend this book!

Big Thank you to NetGalley, Avon Books UK and the author Katerina Diamond for my ARC of Trick Or Treat in exchange for an honest

I greatly enjoyed this thriller by Katerina Diamond. this is the first I've read from this author. The emotions of the characters were realistic and kept me engaged in the story. Emotion, intrigue, plot twists - all converge for a thrilling read.

This book is a thriller in every imaginable way. It's Halloween and six year old Marcus is outside riding up and down his street on his bike while wearing his Halloween costume. Jason is in the house across from Marcus's and is totally trashing the place. He looks outside and sees the little boy get thrown in a white van. He was abducted right outside his house. This story really takes you to the darker side of human nature. There are so many twists and turns in this plot, you may never find the suspect. The ending was totally unexpected. This book is powerful.
