This is one of those books that kept me reading till late in the night as I couldn't stop reading.
It's the first i read in this series and I think it's brilliant.
It's a complex mystery that deals with serious issues like justice for all the victims, vigilantes, child abuse and grief.
It's a police procedural but it's also a story about life on the Irish border and the impacts of history on the life of common people.
The characters are complex and well developed, you can feel the empathy of the author towards all the victims.
It talks about murder but also about the passing of time, the changes in life and how grief affects our life.
It's heartbreaking at times, tense and full of twists.
I found it poignant, gripping and intense.
Highly recommended.
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine
