5 stars from me
Picking up exactly where Thorn in My Side left off, this book is exciting from the very first page and wastes no time in bringing the action.
Honestly, what’s not to love about feisty Rhiannon and her childish yet murderous rages? I love the stans, The Bad Seeds, who pop up everywhere and thankfully although fawning are helpful.
C J Skuse has created another action packed and exciting installment in our favourite serial killer’s life, and in this book she faces new challenges having to leave her husband behind and go on alone to try to save the life of her daughter.
I raced through this book. Fun, murder and mayhem ensue, with many surprises and a thoroughly enjoyable read. Much recommended – although please do start from book one in the series.
Blurb: 🪓Sweetpea is coming home at last… Newly married, with a loving family surrounding her, everything’s coming up roses for ex-serial killer Rhiannon Lewis, right? Wrong. Her husband has just been shot, and the daughter she left behind in the UK is desperately ill. She’s got no choice but to flee the States and return home, back to her roots, where she’s in danger of being recognised and arrested at any moment. Only nothing is quite as it seems… With a series of bad choices in front of her, and the authorities right behind, Rhiannon’s in a hell of a hole and she needs to dig herself out of it pronto. But help can come from the most unlikely places. And even more unlikely people…
