2.23.2020 - Watching From the Dark

Watching from the Dark by Gytha Lodge

Many thanks to NetGalley, Penguin/Random House, and Gytha Lodge for the opportunity to read the second book in the DCI Jonah Sheens series.  4.5 stars for another great read!  Loved getting back into these characters and am already anxious for the next book.

Aidan Poole logs onto Skype to talk to his girlfriend, Zoe.  However, tonight, all he sees is that someone else is in Zoe's apartment and a violent struggle takes place in her apartment.  Fearing the worse but afraid, he contacts the police but doesn't leave his name.  Jonah's team gets the case and find Zoe dead in her bathroom.  Once they start investigating, they discover that Zoe was the one in her group of friends that helped and supported everyone else.  But there are a lot of people keeping secrets here.  The book switches from the active investigation to Zoe's story from about a year and a half before the murder.

I suspected everyone of the murder - the author did a great job of keeping me guessing until the very end.  Great read!
