The Other Victim- Helen Durrant
An estate agent is found dead in a house when he should be showing prospective
buyers around. An unassuming man who lived very frugally despite doing well in business
in the past. Why him? When a man is found burned in a car dumped in the canal the team
suddenly have their hands full. A young girl is missing who is also a mother. She has taken
herself off before but this time it doesn’t somehow ring true.. Could any of these be linked
or is there a visitor in town causing chaos? Helen as ever gives us a wonderful read which
you lose yourself in very easily. DI Matt Brindle and team are new on the pages and by half
way through I felt not only comfortable with them but that I was getting to “know” them as I
always enjoy in a crime read. Some background to the main players which always makes
for a more interesting book and a good plot mean I can disappear easily within the pages
without even thinking about it. Twists and turns along the way to keep your grey matter
alive without having to think too much but enough to keep you wondering.
A very enjoyable read.
