Mel Sherratt's debut novel, Taunting the Dead, was one of my favourite crime fiction reads of the year, so I couldn't wait to get my hands on her latest. And wow, what a read! Within a page, I was hooked. The believable cast of characters drew me into the world of the estate, and as lives became more and more complicated and secrets piled up, the suspense kept me turning the pages as quickly as I could. Sherratt has a way of expertly spinning a web of tension and fear within the lives of ordinary people, and I eagerly await her next novel. In my opinion, she gets better and better.
