This novel does not slow down and at times has you holding your breath as, one after another, the victims meet gruesome deaths that, at first, appear unconnected.
The author has the knack of frustrating the reader by letting them see some of the connections between the killer and their victims whilst keeping the police in the dark and yet writing at such a pace as to keep the reader engrossed. I couldn't put this book down yet found myself looking over my shoulder as the perpetrator is so despicable,but clever they make your skin crawl. Keep the lights on when reading at night. I enjoyed this and will certainly continue with the series: May 17, Rebecca Bradley rated it it was amazing. But much worse, she is now being wa Eleven months after discovering a brutal double murder in a sleepy Northumbrian town, Detective Chief Inspector Kate Daniels is still haunted by her failure to solve the case.
For a debut crime novel, the blurb alone has you wondering whether this can actually be pulled off. An old unsolved case haunting our protagonist, then a new crime scene that immediately puts her in a difficult position, and a decision, she chooses is not the one of being up front as she should in the job, so where can she go with this? Where Mari Hannah does go, is a very mature and easily readable plot, that carries you along smoothly with the characters, with the feeling that this isn't going quite the right way, but we have faith the the twists and turns and dark corners are going to bring us into the light at some point, just after another dark and difficult corner has to be confronted.
It is flawlessly written and easy to keep track of the characters and their interacting lives. A group of people in a team, I am definitely waiting to read in Mari's next release in the series. Kate Daniels is an easy character to spend time with. A strong cop, but also a human being. A great great debut and I for one, can't wait to read more. Apr 30, Victoria Watson rated it really liked it.
Kate is intelligent, gutsy and strong but someone's out to put a spanner in the works of Daniels's illustrious career. Almost a year after discovering a brutal double murder, Daniels is presented with the corpse of a familiar face but fails to disclose the connection - making everything even more complicated. A murderer is on the loose in Newcastle and it's up to Daniels to stop the killer from claiming any more victims. Mari Hannah's writing is taut and intelligent, she keeps you on the edge of your seat throughout the novel.
The way in which Mari describes the characters gives the reader a great mental image of who she's writing about. There's an abundance of characters which just adds to the realistic feel of the piece. It's fast-paced, gritty and realistic. It contains lots of information regarding police procedures but the information is always relevant to the story.
The idea behind the crimes is highly original and, as a native north-easterner, I loved that the geographical locations were accurate. In Kate Daniels, Mari has created a character that you want to know more about and I for one and am pleased that the second installment featuring DCI Daniels will be out later this year.
Always mindful of the reader, Hannah has produced short chapters for bedtime readers who want to stop at the end of a chapter.
However, the story is so good, you may find it keeps you awake all night! A great debut from a writer with bags of potential. May 31, Raven rated it it was ok. By happy coincidence this original crime becomes linked to a series of murders in where a prayer card is left at each murder scene.
The lesbian story line seemed like an attempt to channel early Val McDermid but was unique in the fact that are very few openly gay police characters in mainstream crime fiction. Also there is an incredibly clumsy signposting of the killer. One thing I did like about it was the representation of Newcastle as I lived there for 8 years and it was all very familiar to me and Mari captured the spirit of the city very well.

As the narrative progresses, we learn as the characters learn about the twisting mysteries, as well as, the personal obstacles the characters face and overcome. The story line is primarily told from the perspective of Kate Daniels, yet does seamlessly shift to other perspectives as needed. Both the action and the mystery components of the story are well plotted and consistent throughout.
Overall, a thrilling read! May 29, Wren rated it it was ok. A Saturday Slaughters selection for May A dry and jumbled police procedural I was quite disappointed as the author had excellent ideas. However, the execution lacked finesse. I wanted to love Kate Daniels but there was no development to her character, nothing to hold onto, to make her the bright star on the police force. Jo was better developed, the reader could see her in the setting but there was no actual profiling going on. Great read Great book. It's a compelling story.
I think what is most disturbing is how realistic it is. What I liked the most was the authors writing style.
It was easy to follow. Also her ability to give both sides.
Her characters are very realistic and she enables you to connect with them, especially the lead character. Really enjoyed it and highly recommend this book and the author.
I'm off to find some more. Jul 04, Anetq rated it really liked it Shelves: Even though our detective is haunted by an old case aren't they all the new case is complicated, and more than a few people have secrets - the police included, and our main character in particular.
Nothing turns out to be quite what it seems and one of their own is in the middle of it It's well written, the characters feel real and the plot is credible but not at all obvious. Aug 08, Pat rated it liked it. This is my first Mari Hannah book and i think i will go on to read more. I read it as the author is coming to a charity fund raising evening along with another couple of local authors in October. I was quite engrossed by the story line although I don't necessarily think that all the characters were very well drawn. I will have to see how the series continues.

May 30, Sheila Howes rated it really liked it. I liked the character of Kate Daniels and look forward to reading more.

The murder of a man on Newcastle's Quayside gives Daniels her first case as Senior Investigating Officer however there's a problem - Daniels recognises the corpse and must decide whether or not to reveal all to her superiors. Daniels is described as an officer with an exemplary career, certainly one that doesn't need to 'prove' anything you would assume, so I did wonder just what would happen in the story regarding her keeping this secret.
