Really enjoyed this first book in what I hope will become an ongoing series.
Likeable, interesting characters who I feel have much more to show and a great plot which kept me guessing throughout the story.

What a brilliant book this is, I'm pretty good at guessing who did it, but this time I had no idea and the one I did think was murdering these people I found I was miles off, it's a great storyline and lovely characters, an altogether nerve wracking but very enjoyable read.

Excellent new series.

Thoroughly enjoyable new crime fiction. Great characters that will easily evolve into a tight team for future novels. Already bought the next.
