Big five stars from me.

Anna loves her relationship with her boyfriend, Mark. He’s tall and handsome … but Mark has extremely dangerous secrets and Anna manages to flee from him when the truth comes out.

DS Ray Lewis wants Mark in prison, but somehow, Mark gets away with his behaviour, making him seem invincible.

DI Laura Kesey is Ray’s boss as well as his friend, they work well together. Kesey wants evidence to get Mark off the streets, fearing his behaviour is going to get steadily worse.

What a dark psychological thriller this story is. It wasn’t an easy book to read but I found myself being pulled back into the story.

I liked Ray’s character, he might have been nearing retirement, as well as being a cynical man, but he cared about people.

My heart went out to Anna and the other women in the story. Anna’s bravery and strength showed through the writing.

This is a chilling and tragic tale about secrets, grooming, and revenge.

Be prepared to sit up until the early hours reading this book as once you’re in its clutches, you’re going nowhere until you’ve finished it.

My thanks to the author and Boldwood Books for a copy in exchange for my honest review.
