Well, I thoroughly enjoyed that ... it just kept giving!!

Apparently this is the third in the series but I had absolutely no idea and it definitely didn't take anything away from my enjoyment of this book, if anything, it has made me want to read the others all the more.

This book is full of twists, turns and action with excellent characters and written at a good pace. The plot is intricate but easy to follow and the back story of Connor's past is an interesting addition that gives him more depth.

If you enjoy action-packed, crime thrillers that keep you guessing, then I would have no hesitation in recommending this.

Many thanks to Constable, Little, Brown Book Group UK and NetGalley for my copy in return for an honest, unbiased and unedited review.

It's been a while since I last watched this movie back in the late 80s late night tv and liking it back then. And now I've seen it a second time first time on blu ray in the UK from 101 and its just as I remember the first time for me the star of the movie for me is Linda Blair far removed from the exorcist for me it's her best role playing an older character and it works with support from Peter Barton as her love interest there are some good kills in the movie liked the way they kept the killer in the shadows never knowing where he's hiding. Must watch the extras next to see the cast and crew remember the film

Decent crime thriller

One of the films I missed as it didn't get a long release at the cinema in the UK. Naomie Harris plays a rookie cop in a rundown area of New Orleans. With corrupt cops and gangs working together in the supply of drugs. Soon she is hunted by both through the neighborhood after capturing a murder by the corrupt cops on her bodycam.
Overall it was an enjoyable watch, a little slow at the start and middle section. It had quite a low budget feel to it despite some big cast names. Worth a watch but far from the better films with a similar plotline. @21 Bridges (2019) is one example that had more action.

This is the second novel I have read by this author, the first being Sticks and Stones, and I have enjoyed them both.

Charlie is trying to re-build her life after having spent time in prison; she buys a run down cottage in a small Cornish village and although she tries to keep herself to herself whilst renovating, she starts to become involved in village life and developing friendships amongst the residents but she soon begins to feel uneasy and things start to happen.

With a plausible story line, complex, well developed and interesting characters, a great setting culminating in a thrilling conclusion, this is an enjoyable read.

My thanks go to Random House UK, Vintage Publishing via NetGalley for my copy in return for an honest review.
