This book follows DI Grace Archer as she and her team are on the case of a killer in London who displays his victims.

This book I found just average. Saying that I didn't dislike the book just didn't love it.

The story is a police procedure and it's not my favourite genre. Like other books in the genre the story has a very similar pattern, the detective with a past, a likeable sidekick, killer on the loose, killer tries to kill detective.

The plot was ok and something a little different and the story did have a steady pace. There was enough to hold my interest although the killer was easily guessed.

First book by this author for me and if a series were to emerge for me I won't be continuing just because I don't really like police procedures.

Thank you to the publisher via Readers First for the opportunity to read the book. ( )
