Description

A gorgeous country house, surrounded by sweeping lawns, is warmed by the rising sun. But inside, the lady of the manor will not see the morning…

Police photographer Sukey Reynolds is called to investigate a seemingly routine break-in at the beautiful Dearley Manor estate, but when she arrives, she is shocked to find the body of someone she knows all too well. The owner of Dearley Manor is none other than the wealthy woman whom Sukey’s husband, Paul Reynolds, left her for… And she has been brutally murdered.

With her close personal connection, Sukey is officially pulled off the case. But as the police close in on Paul, convinced he is guilty, Sukey realises she has no choice but to try and prove his innocence. He may not have been the world’s best husband, but he’s no killer.

As she starts to dig around the dead woman’s history, Sukey realises she was certainly no saint, and many of her neighbours might have wanted the late owner of Dearley Manor out of the way…

When yet another woman on the Dearley Estate is found dead, Sukey fears that anyone who knows too much about the troubled family is in danger from a ruthless murderer. Can she prove Paul’s innocence before it’s too late? And will she be able to nail this brutal killer before another life is taken?

My thoughts

Rating: 5

Would I recommend it? yes

Will I read the rest of the series ? yes ( in fact I've already requested book 6 from Netgalley since I've all ready read book 1 and I'm getting ready to read book 3 then I just have books 4-5 to read

Will I read anything else by this author: yes

This series keeps getting better and better , while I give the first one a 4.5 start rating this one gets 5 starts because you get to see more of the characters and more of their lives in this one, you also get to meet Sukey's ex husband who i disliked ( no take that back it went from to dislike to hate) because how he acted , to me his a a whiny baby , and the victim ,wow she's a peace of work , not once did I feel sorry for at all, if you want to know what happens you need to read the series yourself, with that said I want to say thank you to Netgalley for letting me read and review it .
