The plot twists peppered throughout the story were incredible. In the end, I stopped trying to find out who Jessica’s killer was as there simply was too many what if’s! This was well written and kept me interested. A beautifully written and well constructed story based in the Fen Country, where an established detective is partnered with an inbound female detective. Still coming to terms with the death of a popular boss, DS Ben Savage is offered the chance of promotion and leading his first murder enquiry. Then DI Freya Bloom lands in their midst and threatens their preconceptions. Taking a break from her mysterious past, she takes over and Ben has to reconsider his options while they pursue their enquiries.

The Wild Fens mysteries are new to me. This book was described as a thriller - it is by no means a thriller (thank goodness) but a readable mystery/detective story that captured my imagination and kept reading until the end (completed within the day!). The readers of Secrets In Blood will understand that law enforcement officers suffer to keep the community safe. Also, the readers of Secrets In Blood will understand why someone will become a vigilante and the consequences for law enforcement officers. The Pentecost & Parker series “takes gritty 40s noir, shakes it up, gives it a charming twist, and serves it up with unforgettable style” (Deanna Raybourn, author of the Veronica Speedwell Mysteries). From the author of Fortune Favors the Dead and Murder Under Her Skin. But this is where I stand. Let's start with the most glaring one. The male savior complex, and its cliché story line. This might surprise you, but not every woman needs "saving". Whether they're going through a hard time or not. Especially not when the "saving" is driven by whatever the writer was referring to as "schoolboy desires" (or something similar).
A NEW YORK TIMES BEST CRIME NOVEL OF THE YEAR• A NEW YORK TIMES EDITORS’ CHOICE • EDGAR AWARD NOMINEE Can Freya ditch her designer heels for wellington boots, and adapt to the country life? Can she shape her new team into something workable? And can she put her past behind her long enough to prevent a second murder? The ending was a sweet one, yet kept the door open for more books in this series. Which I’m glad to hear! I’m certainly not done with reading this series yet! I can’t wait to begin reading the next one! This one is certainly the most difficult to find in the game, and even its location is very confusing to figure out, so focus on this more than defeating the creature as you can leave the game once you've found the Golden Statue.

Razor-sharp style, tons of flair, a snappy sense of humor, and all the most satisfying elements of a really good noir novel.” A NEW YORK TIMES BEST CRIME NOVEL OF THE YEAR• In the newest entry into the Nero Award-winning Pentecost & Parker Mystery series, Lillian and Will are hot on the trail of a serial killer whose murders are stranger than fiction.Bloodtide is a Roblox horror game that takes inspiration from Neighborhood War – a fellow Roblox title. The game has many jumpscares, so players are advised to take caution. Additionally, the game is pretty gory and contains flashing images unsuitable for those with photosensitive epilepsy. Night Of The Living Hedge” (15 Gamerscore / Bronze Trophy) — Find the secret in “Dr. Rogers’ Neighborhood”. I dropped one star simply because the relationship between two of the characters was somewhat predictable and did not really add anything to the appeal of the story for me, though others may differ in their opinion. Bonus: For finding all 10 Secrets you get Supply Points, which you use to buy Cards to improve characters. This mystery, the third in a series, is as winning as its predecessors. Here, the famous P.I. Lillian Pentecost and her spiky junior partner, Willowjean ‘Will’ Parker, immerse themselves in the seedy milieu of pulp magazines, circa 1947. The novel reads as easy as fine whiskey goes down.”

Bullets, blood, bodies, and belly-laughs: all the ingredients of a classic mystery novel. Stephen Spotswood hard-boils with the best of ‘em!” Freya Bloom represents a strong woman, but also showcases what too many women have gone through in this world, showing those vulnerable moments in D.I Freya Bloom to me was empowering as you see her navigating these issues, but crucially rising above them and showing what any woman can do. Possibly better then any man!Takes gritty 40s noir, shakes it up, gives it a charming twist, and serves it up with unforgettable style. My new favorite sleuthing duo are Pentecost and Parker, the spiritual sisters of Nero Wolfe and Archie Goodwin. . .Utterly brilliant!”
