Little bird- Sharon Dempsey- 4*

A bridesmaid is murdered whilst at her sister’s wedding. Their father is a forensic psychologist now in a wheelchair after a car bomb took away his mobility. Anna is new to the Northern Ireland force arriving shortly after this happens so is immediately in the thick of it.  She has left behind her husband as they have grown apart. Declan feels that not only has he lost his legs but a part of his life and now his daughter- when will it end? Another young girl is found dead. Is this the same perpetrator and why are these girls being targeted? I enjoy detective novels when there is more than just the main story (but not too much to be detracting) and this gives a little more about the main character’s life. Well told and well rounded, you can’t help but like Anna and feel for Declan like you would a neighbour. A little humour, a little romance, a good plot and excellent story telling make this a highly enjoyable book.I voluntarily chose to read this ARC and all opinions in this review are my own and completely unbiased
