Starred Review from Kirkus
|
|
'Evans brings wit and insight to this tale of looking for love in
all the wrong places.'
Kirkus Reviews
|
|
'It's bad enough being suspected of a double murder, worse still
when it's your alter ego being pursued and it's the pits when you are the policeman in charge of supposedly catching yourself. I thoroughly enjoyed Dying For You, the sixth in the series. A lot of humour is injected in Rafferty's narrative. He's got himself in an impossible situation and one wonders what can go wrong next. I savoured this book and I'm keen to read the rest in the series asap.' www.weatherwax.eclipse.co.uk (Euro crime) |

Sixth in the Rafferty and Llewellyn series, in which poor DI Rafferty manages -
unbeknownst to his collegues - to become chief suspect in his own double murder investigation. And all he'd been doing was looking for love... |

'American fans of British procedurals would be wise to
get to know the Rafferty and Llewellyn series. Like its stars, it's reliable and consistently satisfying.'
Emily Melton, Booklist

'Attention mystery fans! DI Joseph Rafferty is back with
a new mystery. The murder of an old woman in a building that is supposed to be safe brings out all kinds of motives, but is one of them strong enough for murder?
A combination of intriguing subplots that merge into a
fun read by talented Geraldine Evans who has created a cast of characters, some not so nice, but you'll enjoy meeting them as they try to keep Rafferty from learning their secrets and possible motives for murder. Recommended as a real whodunnit you'll be glad you read. Enjoy. I did.'

Nuns! Lapsed Catholic DI Joe Rafferty thought, appalled to discover their latest
murder case is located in an RC convent, one, moreover, that housed the enclosed, contemplative Order of Carmelites. What were a bunch of penguin dressers doing getting involved in a suspicious death? he wonders. It's bad enough that he's forced to revisit his long-since and gladly abandoned Catholicism, but, at the same time, someone is trying to blackmail him. Strangely, his blackmailer makes no demands. Which is perhaps just as well, worrying as this is, because his current case is proving demanding enough. |
