Goodreads Synopsis

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery...


When body parts are found on the banks of the River Thames in Deptford, DI Angelica Henley is tasked with finding the killer. Eerie echoes of previous crimes lead Henley to question Peter Olivier, aka The Jigsaw Killer, who is currently serving a life sentence for a series of horrific murders.


When a severed head is delivered to Henley's home, she realises that the copycat is taking a personal interest in her and that the victims have not been chosen at random.


To catch the killer, Henley must confront her own demons - - and when Olivier escapes from prison, she finds herself up against not one serial killer, but two.

 

Review

Oh. My. God.


I had so much trouble putting this book down and found myself addicted to this book! The storyline, the characters and the writing as a whole were just spot on and ticked all the boxes for me in terms of a mystery thriller/crime novel! It is dark, it's gritty but most of all it's realistic and I felt like I was working alongside Henley in this case.


This book is fast-paced and I found myself devouring over half of it in a few hours. The twists and turns had me on the edge of my seat and rooting for Henley throughout! There was never a part in the book that felt like it dragged on or was not needed in order to move the storyline on. This book not only provides a gripping premise but it also covers a lot of topics such as PTSD.


Honestly, I could sit here for hours and talk about this book and how well planned out and researched it is! I cannot wait to read more of Nadine's work and read more in this series of Inspector Anjelica Henley.

 

Rating: 5/5 stars
