‘Detective’s Shadow’ takes us into the life of unlikely partners Rachael and Kerr. When Rachael finally escapes from a controlling boyfriend, she turns to private investigator Kerr for solace. The story is wonderfully written that it’s very easy to tear through the book in just a short amount of time. We get to know Rachael by the way she interacts with her abusive boyfriend Bill, and it’s heartbreaking how she’s treated. Her only respite is the occasional coffee meet ups with the elusive Kerr.This eventually led to a professional partnership where they try to solve a murder. As they attempt to uncover the truth, they find themselves being pursued by forces who want to silence them. The murder mystery isn’t the only thing going on in the story. There’s also the part where Rachael tries to remember her childhood and Kerr is haunted by his own past. It all comes together in a surprising conclusion.
