annarella 's review for:

Molten City by Chris Nickson
5.0

I love this series and I loved this instalment.
It's gripping, entertaining and the story keeps you hooked till the end.
It's a police procedural according to my heart, well written and fast paced. I loved how the author mixes historical facts and fiction making them work very well.
The mystery is solid, full of twists and turns, and it kept me guessing till the end.
The descriptions of Leeds are vivid and realistic and the story talks about a mystery but how bleak the situation was for the poorest.
The vote for women movement is part of the story and the descriptions are quite realistic.
The characters are well rounded and likable, I love Annabelle as she's a strong willed woman.
It's an excellent read that I strongly recommend.
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine.
