I’m becoming addicted to these Maeve Kerrigan books. Ok, I’ve only read Cruel Acts before this, but I’ve now bought all the others, and I’m writing this having read the book that comes AFTER The Cutting Place. So.

The characters of Maeve Kerrigan and Josh Derwent are, I’ll be honest, my main motivation for reading these books. The chemistry between them is quite something!

The cases are fascinating too. A mud lark on the Thames finds a human hand. DNA results say it belongs to a missing journalist, and so Maeve is pulled into what the journalist was last investigating: The Chiron Club. A private members club for rich, privileged men.

It’s not all about the case, and that’s what I like most about these books - the mix. Maeve’s new boyfriend Seth, isn’t as he at first seems, and a secret that Maeve has been keeping from Josh is revealed in the worst possible way.

These are just fantastic books, and I will be reading the backlist. That should keep me occupied 😳

I've read this book so many times. I'm not sure whether the tips draw me in or Stephen talking about his thought processes behind some of his books. Either way, a fantastic read for anyone who would like insight into how a writer thinks.

Love this app
I've been using this app for years and I absolutely love it. It helps connect you to other readers and authors. It keeps my books organized and even gives suggestions on what to read next. I use this app just about everyday.

I usually enjoy books about "rogues", dukes, lords, and balls. For some reason, I couldn't get fully invested in this one. The story, as a whole, was interesting, but I was not as desperate to read it as I wanted to be.
