It's a big read at 544 pages in the hardback edition but I read it in two sittings with a reluctant break for food in between. As I got closer to the end I suffered that horrible temptation to flick to the final pages - I had to know what happened '''now'''. The tension is steadily ramped up throughout the book to the point where it's almost unbearable. There's a real sense of atmosphere too - the investigations take place in December and it's bitterly cold and with blizzard conditions on occasions. It's so real that I shivered. Splendid, splendid stuff.
You could read this book without any knowledge of what has gone before in the series - you'll pick up the essentials as you go along. It's some four years since I read the [[Innocent Blood by Elizabeth Corley|last book]] - I just hope that I don't have to wait as long for the next. I'd like to thank the publisher for sending a copy to the Bookbag.
If you enjoy police procedural series we can recommend [[Under A Silent Moon by Elizabeth Haynes]] - the first in what looks like a very promising series. We also have a review of Corley's [[Fatal Legacy by Elizabeth Corley|Fatal Legacy]].
