Taken out of the Crime Book Box, as my TBR pile is massive it may be a while until I get the chance to read this :-)

It was a good story but there was something lacking for me. I didn't feel the empathy I felt I should for the main characters.

Going into the Crime/Mystery Bookbox.

Taken out of the crime box as not read many Cardiff based crime novels so am looking forward to this one
