In one word...terrible! - 1 star

"Endless gratitude must go to the amazing bookshops who get my bonkers novels into readers hands".....indeed the author is to right this book is bonkers beyond belief. DCI Cara Elliott is is in charge of a team of detectives attempting to catch a serial killer. All the victims appear mentally unbalanced, their medication is stopped or increased resulting in said victims committing suicide. What a bizarre premise underlying a crime novel. What is even more bonkers is that the team are themselves mentally unbalanced. Cara has lived with the terminal illness of her mother and untimely death of her father, her brother Griffin , also coping with the death of their father,is on leave, due to turmoil following the demise of his partner.... and attempting to give up alcohol but not succeeding (are you following this?). A second detective DS Jamie Hoxton, is on medication also due to the death of his partner. Cara brings brother Griffin back into the team ( how is it possible to return your alcoholic sibling to a major crime investigation!) Griffin is partnered with DC Alana Brody who uses Griffin as a sex object........I kid you not.......This book is akin to a rather hastily, made for tv, crime caper (I use the term crime loosely) it has no literary worth, totally devalues the crime genre, and it astounds me that there are so many 5 star reviews.
