Fantastic start to a new series. 

Once again the dependable Alice Winters has gifted us with another incredible read. Liam is very much a “morally grey” character filled with sarcasm whilst Gabriel is a sunshiney person full of goodness. They work together as homicide detectives until circumstances see them parting ways. When Gabriel’s life is in danger, Liam returns to the Police Department to get his man back alive. Although only Liam knows that Gabriel is his man. There’s plenty of snark and humour balanced with some action and drama and a slow burn romance beautifully entwined between these elements. The intriguing plot had me pulled in from the very first line and kept me engaged to the last.  It also kept me guessing and certainly had me thinking “ohh, plot twist”.  There’s plenty of side characters to keep things interesting but I especially loved Lucille Pawl who absolutely oozes attitude! I can’t wait for more in the Deadly Mistakes series.
