Charlotte (184 KP) rated Trace of Doubt in Books
Oct 18, 2021
This is awesome!! I thought the book was going to end at the halfway point, it would have been easy to do.......I'm so glad that it didn't. The depth and details that were included really made the story. The layers giving an insight into a narcissistic mind of a selfish killer were spot on, they really helped to cement the dislike of that particular character.
My theories were good with some bits but I was still caught if guard with some details.
Shelby is sweet, strong, a little sassy and an ex-con who found Jesus in the darkest of times. Her faith doesn't falter regardless of the difficulties that she faces.
Faith is prevalent throughout, it's not preachy but it is a strong theme and it suits the storyline perfectly.
Everything is pulled together nicely, I had a few moments where tears were shed and my heart ached for Shelby.
I'm keeping my fingers crossed that someone picks up on this and makes it a film as It would be amazing!
Trace of Doubt is a thrilling adult read worthy of a good dose of me time, a glass of wine and chocolate.

Scott Jericho is back living with his traveller fairground family after a prison sentence that saw the end of his career as a CID Police Officer. He had violently attacked a Knight of Saint George - a far right thug he had been interviewing about the death of three Polish children. This also meant that he couldn’t be charged for the crime.
There’s some history of fairground travellers in this - all true, and both interesting and nice to know that we don’t call those more unusual fairground acts “freaks” anymore.
Believe it or not, Jericho has more problems than being an ex-con: he’s using drugs, has boyfriend trouble, and the man he was charged with attacking can’t seem to keep himself away.
Jericho’s life is complicated.
The murders are gruesome and really rather inventive!
And no one is as they seem, either. It’s a dark read.
There are a lot of surprises, and I enjoyed them all!
Many thanks to The Pigeonhole and to William Hussey for reading along too. This is the first of a new series, and I’ll be interested to know what happens to Scott Jericho next!

This book is both fantastic and horrible! It is full of historical abuse, psychotic episodes, and trauma. And yet it is also full of hope, of love and of the promise of good things yet to come. With this storyline, we not only learn more about Malek and Gina, but also Trace, his brother Brak, and their father Maddox. Then there are the Drecks, Dracians, and Thracians all thrown into the mix too. However, Ms Lynne's writing is such that you are never overloaded with information, rather it all slots neatly into place, leaving you with a thrilling and emotion-packed story.
A fantastic addition to the series, leaving me wanting more... like now! Highly recommended.

This is the author's debut novel and I am already in love with her intimate and descriptive writing style. It doesn't feel like it was written for the masses, but rather just for "you" alone. This means that you are drawn right into the story and care about the characters, some more than others!
With layer upon layer woven together in a thrilling elemental story, this book will sweep you away and definitely leave you wanting more.
Oh, one thing more I need to say - TEAM REN!!!

Jun 8, 2023
This is an enjoyable story that is full of action. It became a bit difficult to read halfway through, simply due to the amount of action that was taking place, plus the 'street talk' that was prevalent. It did even itself out though, and once again, became a thrilling read. With plenty of twists and turns, you don't ever see what is coming before the author wants you to.
This story is all wrapped up in this book, but it has been left open for a sequel. I hope that the story does continue as I would love to carry on with Kalei's story. Definitely recommended.
