5 Stars from me
Victim of Innocence is a prequel to the incredible DCI Matilda Darke crime series.
This, short story, is a must for fans of the series and you get to meet a slightly different Matilda. In this book her beloved husband is still alive and she is more fun, flirtatious and coquettish. It’s a little bit heartbreaking to know just how things are going to end up, yet still wonderful to see them together.
The story shows Matilda having to work alongside DI Ben Hales as they have to work together to find a killer before he strikes again.
There are some great scenes of tension and peril, particularly during the undercover section and it is a cracking plot.
Not everything is quite as it first seems…
If you have a book lover in your life and know that they enjoy crime thrillers – then this book is a must buy for their Christmas list!
