DI Jack MacIntosh #5
Detective Jack MacIntosh is called out to a body on the South Bank. The victim's hands and feet are bound, her skin badly bruised, her lips crudely sewn together, Inside the dead woman's mouth is the head of a rat. This is the second body in two days. The next night, a third body is discovered in a derelict brewery. The same bruising, the mouth sewn shut, the rat's head. This time it's a young man - and he's been dead about a week. With no witnesses, and no clues to who the victims are, Jack's investigation is going nowhere.
This story made me feel quite squeamish reading about the rats heads being sewn into victim's mouths. The characters are well-developed. the pace was steady, and there were plenty of twists in this well-written book. I kept thinking I knew what was going on, but I was wrong. I could not pout this book down,
I would like to thank #NetGalley #JoffeBooks and the author #MichelleKidd for myh ARC of #ThreeBrokenBodies in exchange for an honest review.
A gripping read. Not for the faint hearted from the start of the book we are given a very descriptive insight into the deaths. If you enjoy a real thriller with plenty of police procedure with the odd red herring thrown in then this is the one for you. My thanks to netgalley and the publisher for my copy.
Complex and addictive police procedural keeps the tension going until the very end. Strong cast of characters and multiple sub-plots that twist and turn and throw red herrings everywhere will keep you turning the page to the wee hours. Definitely recommended

Thank you Netgalley and the publisher for sharing this book with me!
