I know I have said it before and I'll say it again. I love a great suspense/mysery series, especially one with female leads. Gina Harte is one of my favourite detectives.
Synopsis
Her small hands tremble and tears run down her cheeks. Shivering in the dark, damp storeroom, the little girl clutches her favourite toy dog. She cries out for help, but nobody answers. Her mother went missing last night and, as dawn breaks, there is still no sign of her.
Four-year-old Cleo shakes with fear as she tells the police that her mother, Darcie, was taken by a man on their way home last night. Darcie told Cleo to run and hide, and the last thing she saw was Darcie being pushed into the back of a car.
When police look into Darcie’s life, they discover a drunken argument with her best friend hours before she went missing, a dark figure seen loitering near where Cleo was found, and a recent assault allegation against a customer at Darcie’s work.
It seems like everyone around the young mother was keeping secrets, but Darcie had a dark secret of her own – one she hasn’t dared tell a soul.
Did Darcie’s deadly past finally catch up with her? And will she find the strength to fight for her life and keep her promise to return for her beloved daughter?
If you enjoy reading Angela Marsons, J M Dalgliesh and Mark Edwards then you’ll absolutely love this addictive page-turner.
My review
This is book 15 in the series. It can be read as a standalone, but it's nice to know Gina Harte's background.
Once again, Carla knocked it out of the park and I devoured this tense read in about 48 hours.
It kept me guessing, and I honestly never suspected the guilty party - or the connections. And I love when that happens!
I can't say enough times just how much I adore this series! And I highly recommend it to any mystery fan - especially ones who love a strong female protagonist.
Gina has Harte and I love reading her story. This one touched on her past again, and more was revealed to show how she became the strong woman she is.
I can't wait for the next book.
