I enjoyed it. Vera didn't appear until half way through. Was beginning to think she'd never show up 🤣

On ch. 14 of listening to this novel.The voices of the characters have been quite an adjustment to my ears- Over time I have watched every season of the series on Britbox-I cannot get the film‘s distinctive voices out of my head to make room for these audio voices -they grate on me.Despite this issue,as usual Cleeves‘ story line has me hooked.
Mystery, police procedural, and/or Vera Stanhope fans can read this installment regardless of previous series experience (or lack thereof). Read my full review here: https://debbybrauer.org/#the-dark-wives-vera-stanhope-11
Publication is expected August 27.

Vera, Joe and Rosie are searching for Josh, a staff member of a residents home. They need to find a 14 year old Chloe Spence to get to the truth. The book moves at a steady pace with multiple POV's from the team members. As usual, Ann Cleeves keeps the story close to her chest so it's hard to figure out what is going on until the very end of the book.
I‘m a big fan of the Ann Cleeves Vera series (although I do like the Shetland series even more). I really like how unapologetically grumpy and terse and fixated Vera is. I‘m almost finished the tv series as well, which differs from the books while still retaining the heart of who Vera is.
