(5 / 5)
Wow! Now You See Me! What an amazing surprise!!
I wasn’t really expecting much from this book. Jack the Ripper copycat, it’s been done. Investigator series, it’s been done… But WOW!!! LOVED IT!! Sucked me in straight away and I was up ALL NIGHT!!!!
It had pretty much everything I love about a novel all rolled into one. Great characters, interestingly dark – yet extremely enjoyable tone, well written, suspenseful, with a dash of romance… And a twist… Ohhhh a BLOODY AWESOME twist!!!
Lacey Flint is an investigator in London who is shoved, quite literally, right into a Jack the Ripper copycat murder investigation. As the investigation progresses and the bodies pile up, she discovers she may be more involved than she realises…
Loved the character of Lacey! She is a flawed, yet extremely likeable heroine. Her past was incredible.
Joesbury is the experienced senior investigator determined to uncover Lacey’s past while struggling with his feelings for her. I loved the relationship between the two of them. The tension was fantastic!
I don’t really have anything negative to say. I don’t really like England that much, and London is probably my least favourite city (no offence to my English friends or England loving friends) so I wasn’t too excited about it being set there. But I actually really enjoyed the setting. The city was so dark and mysteriously beautiful. It almost made me want to go back there… Almost…
It was slightly predictable, but she really did keep you guessing till the end. You will have to read it to understand, just when you think you have it figured out, you don’t, but then you do again… Only this time its like BAM!!!!! Wow! Amazing!
Solid 5 stars*****!
Loved it!! I am already dying to read the next one!

Edited: I did in fact read the next one, and the next one and the next one. And this series is my FAVOURITE series of all time. Loved every word of all of them. And they only get better as they go along!
Try it out, you wont regret it!
