Mehso-so

This is not grounded in reality at all. Do not expect this to be a good procedural investigation book. I would say it's romance with light mystery and squad goals.

The case is a child abduction and murder which automatically takes it out of the cosy genre for me. None of it was handled well or respectfully in the writing. It felt exploitative, as if it was included just for shock value. The perpetrator did not make sense.

PuddleJumper There is too much going on and nothing gets developed. I forgot who half the characters were, especially since some of them had no personality. It was just a name and relationship to the main character.

PuddleJumper The romance would have been better spread over several books. It felt too quick. The sex scenes were bad. Not weeping cock purple prose bad but not far off. Thankfully, they were easy to skip. They also flirt, dirty talk driving back from a child‘s funeral which made it hard to like them.

PuddleJumper The first half of the book was much stronger and then it flops around and comes to a very unsatisfactory and frankly stupid ending. It was easy reading though and I enjoyed the premise. I‘ll probably give the author another go and try the next in the series. 6mo
