The first month of 2016 was consumed with editing In The Shadows, so I'm chuffed that I still managed to squeeze in two books from my humongous to be read list.
Lost Girls by Angela Marsons
I'm a huge DI Kim Stone fan and devoured the first two in the series, so was really looking forward to the latest on offer. It wasn't my favourite of the three, mainly because I felt there was too many voice, but it was full of suspense and kept me guessing until the end.

24 Hours by Claire Seeber
Although it wasn't as fast-paced as I was expecting, 24 Hours is a very clever and interesting read. It flits between the past, where you really get an insight into the characters, and the present, the window of time Laurie is battling with to reach her goal. It's what I call a "thinking book" because you need to be on the ball and concentrating to enjoy it.

I am a DI Kim Stone fan and I love her character and history story, but it just didn't tip Evil Games for me. <br><br>However, it kept me guessing right until the very end which I loved. I was sickened by some of the characters actions and the graphic scenes - I was willing Kim on. For me, there were a few too many voices in Lost Girls. I like the way it flicks from Kim and the criminals, but this book included POVs from the victims, the family and other police officers and sometimes felt too much. I also wasn't too sure about the subplot investigation that was running alongside it, although I understand its place in the end, I was continually itching to get back to Kim and the kidnapping case. <br><br>I would recommend Lost Girls, and the DI Kim Stone series, because they are great crime/thriller books. This one again deals with a sensitive subject for any family with a gritty undertone. <br/><br/> <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/review/list/42616075-tara-lyons">View all my reviews</a>){kind=link}
