The Crow’s murder ( Kit Davenport book 5)
By Tate James

Well, I just can't seem to catch a break, can I?

None of us saw it coming, no matter what precautions we took or how many contingencies we put into play.

What’s the point of having all this power when everyone is out to get me?

They say things are darkest before the light, and that the storm gets worse before it clears. Trust me when I say platitudes don’t do a damn bit of good when you’re in the middle of it.

I’m Kit Davenport, and my heart is breaking.

Holy cow how much can happen in one book! Emotional rollercoaster for Kit and her men but Kit losing Wesley then Johnathan then Lucy I would just give up! She gets Wesley back to lose herself and River! What a bitch of a mother too! I’m looking forward to Kit getting some revenge! I just hope her remaining men don’t get left behind! I enjoyed this book it certainly gave her something to fight for!

Delia Owens delivers us the story of Kya the "Marsh Girl" abandoned by her family in Barkley Cove, North Carolina.

The novel switches between times, something I always struggle a little with when reading a novel of this type. Following Kya growing up, being left in the marshes, finding and losing love and learning important life lessons along the way.

It then switches to the discovery and investigation of Barkley Cove's celebrity and much loved football player Chase Andrews. The locals decided that Kya is most likely to be the murder suspect.

Whilst beautifully written, and weaving joy and sadness through what is a very descriptive novel, I did struggle to read through this story, putting it down more times than continuing to read, and at one stage almost considered not finishing the story. I feel that perhaps the ratings and attention this book has had are perhaps over rated. Its a nice story, a little too wordy in places, but worth a read, but do not expect it to live up to the hype.

I really loved this book. <3 It was one of those books where I had seen it around, but it didn't seem like my type of book, but once I read it, I ended up loving it.
