DI Austin series

Another good book in the DI Austin series which leaves you wanting to immediately read the next book. Each book has its own story but in every one we hear a little more about another longstanding case. I am well and truly booked by this series although the amount of typos in each one is rather annoying.

This was a good read but I did find it harder to get into then the previous books. Some chapters just seemed to have too much little, unnecessary details. Almost like the author was just filling pages to fill the book.

Great

These books just get better and better. I want Olivia and Dean working together again. They made a great team. Can't wait to read the next one

Another classic addition to the DI Austin series. Left on a cliff hanger so onto the next one.
