I have discovered a new to me female detective and I couldn't be happier! Detective Gina Harte is so vividly real! This is book 12 in the Gina Harte series and I am so glad I have found them! You can purchase them here on Amazon, Apple, Kobo and Google. Carla Kovach is quickly becoming my go to for mystery and suspense.
Four-year-old Kayden has been sitting alone on the little patch of tired grass outside his house for hours. His cheeks are wet with tears as he waits for his mother’s warm embrace. But she’ll never arrive to pick up her darling boy. She’ll never be seen again…
Church Road is a quiet corner of suburbia where happy families play in the local park and neighbours smile as they pass in the street. But behind the bright red door of number 8 lies the body of Billie Reeves, a young mum who just took her last breath.
Serena is Billie’s sister. When she found out her boyfriend had been obsessively calling Billie, she’d all but cut her from her life. But not before vowing she would make Billie pay for ruining her relationship…
Shaun is Billie’s ex-boyfriend. He left her the moment she fell pregnant. When he turned up at Billie’s door, demanding to see Kayden, she refused to take the risk of him hurting her precious son. He’ll do whatever it takes to get his little boy back…
Nadia is Billie’s best friend. Their kids attended the same school and Billie often opened up to Nadia about her struggles as a single mother. She knows Billie’s deepest, darkest secret. She promised never to tell, but that was before the argument…
When police investigate the quiet little street, they discover everyone was whispering about Billie’s late-night callers. What was going on behind the closed door of Billie’s small home? And if someone was prepared to kill her, what do they know, and who will be next?
Fans of Angela Marsons, Cara Hunter and Clare Mackintosh, will love Her Deadly Promise – a completely gripping crime thriller that will have you hooked from the very first page!
My review
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
4 year old Kayden is found outside his house, his mother Billie has been murdered inside!
The suspect list is extensive and everyone seems to have a reason to want Billie dead. Twist after twist in this extremely gripping novel kept me guessing right up to the very last chapter! I kept changing my mind and got it completely wrong!
Gina Harte the DI in this novel is so real! Her current life situation of menopause was so well described I could almost feel each hot flush. Her past life gives her such an empathetic outlook and makes her so genuine and the way she sympathises with people make her incredibly likable. Despite this being book 12 in the Detective Gina series I didn't feel lost, but I feel the need to read more in the series!
Carla Kovach not only wrote a story, she also captured a realistic situation that so many people are having to face in tough times, just how far will you go to keep promises and make basic ends meet?
The cliff hanger ending is everything too! We just know there's more to come, and I'm here for it!
Thank you netgalley and bookouture for this arc copy in exchange for my honest opinions.
