Summary
Brambles catch her dress, scratch her legs, pierce her feet. To escape, she’d had no option but to go barefoot. They’d been laughing together a few minutes before, but things can change in the blink of an eye....
The woman is dark-haired and young, judging by the short red dress. Any other signs of her identity have been erased during her long wait to be found, but it’s clear she was strangled: this was a passionate and personal murder.
D.I. Bernadette Noel knows that every second counts if she is to catch this killer, but she has no leads - until the discovery that the dead woman’s rings match a stolen property report, and the rings’ owner mentions Rosa, her missing nanny.
Just when Bernie and her team think they’re getting somewhere, a shocking discovery about Rosa - and the news that another young girl has been abducted - changes everything the team thought they knew about the case.
Laura is only 12, and her parents are beside themselves with worry - but Bernie has an additional fear. Laura’s home is right next to the woods where their murder victim was found: Are the cases connected?
When Bernie notices similarities between descriptions of the man last seen with Rosa and someone Laura was messaging online, these fears grow stronger. But they still have no clear leads as to the identity of the culprit.
With few options left, and time running out, she makes a desperate plan to trap the predator. But any mistakes will mean another innocent life lost....
A gripping crime thriller with a nail-biting climax. If you like Angela Marsons, Val McDermid, or Cara Hunter, you’ll love Joy Kluver.

Had me hooked to the last.
The biggest disappointment I have is that book 3 isn’t ready yet! Seriously, the twists, turns and almost breathless progress throughout the book had me wide awake and struggling to cope with daily life on just a few hours sleep. I couldn’t put it down!

Good story
Good story, very entertaining but as with book one it came across as unpolished, especially at the end, please note that HIGH blood pressure does not cause headaches, that's LOW blood pressure that can do that (sometimes). I grew a little weary of all the vomiting everyone seemed to be doing in this one, too.
Narration is good but the Scottish and Irish accents are still terrible and I was quite confused in the middle of the book when the street pastors came into play, I thought she was saying street pastas.
I do recommend this one though, it's a good story, well worth a credit.

Great book!
It has taken me a while to get around to listening to book 2, although I did enjoy book 1.
The characters in the story are very relatable and I enjoyed the twists and turns of the plot,
The other thing I loved is that the characters behave in a very believable fashion, which I can’t say for all books that I’ve read.
Great narrator too - I have already downloaded book 3!
