Many thanks to NetGalley, Grand Central Publishing, and Sarah Bailey for the opportunity to read and review her latest work. This is the follow up to The Dark Lake, which I absolutely loved, and this one comes in as a very solid read. 4.5 stars.
We are once again in Detective Sergeant Gemma Woodstock's world but now she has moved to Melbourne and working for the police force there. Still bruised and aching from leaving her life behind, she is dealing with being the new person on the force, dealing with a new partner, and battling demons in her down time.
She is investigating the murder of a homeless man when she is suddenly thrust into the limelight of investigating the murder of a very famous young actor on the city streets while filming an action movie. There are hundreds of people around, all in zombie costumes, making finding the killer almost impossible. All of the suspects are unreliable and Gemma is feeling the pressure.
Great read - highly recommended! Definitely could stand alone but always best to read the first in a series. I'm now anxiously awaiting the next book in this series - please don't let us wait too long to find out what happens next!
