Many thanks to NetGalley and Victory Editing NetGalley Co-op | Intrigue Ink Publishing for gifting me a digital ARC of the latest book in the wonderful Jess Lambert series by Christina McDonald. All opinions expressed in this review are my own - 5 stars!
Detective Jess Lambert is days away from the trial of the woman accused of killing her daughter when she wakes in a seedy hotel room with no memory of how she got there. On her phone is a viral video showing Jess calmly shooting the woman in cold blood. Jess has no other choice but to run, and she must find out who's behind it all.
This is a wonderful police procedural, and Jess is such a wonderful character. I've read and loved all the books in this series, but of course I lose all memory once I read them, so this could easily be read as a stand alone. But it's a great series, so start at the beginning. McDonald writes gripping police procedurals, typically with a touch of the supernatural, and it works so well. Just an extra creepy feeling amongst all the tension. But this book takes all that to a different level, because of the explosion of AI into our lives. It's frightening to think how easily Jess' situation could happen to any of us. And people believe what they see. Scary stuff but makes for a great thriller! Can't wait for more in this series!
