Next Victim- Helen Durrant-Crime
A man is found murdered. His throat has been cut and he is also very badly burned.
The only clue to his identity is a small tattoo on his foot. A few years before hand, a
young girl is asking her father not only where her mother went but also her brother.
Now that little bit older she has traced his birth certificate but can’t find out anything
about him. Rachel King is a DCI and has her own issues at home as well as at work.
She has split from her daughters father and he has now moved in next door, which
helps with child care but not her own private life. In the past she had a relationship
that she would rather forget however her heart won’t quite let her. When the case
brings a name to light she begins to wonder if her position in tenable. I love Helen’s
books. It is rather like curling up in front of a roaring fire and know that you are
going to be gripped whilst feeling warm and comfortable at the same time.
Her characters are so well written that they instantly come to life and you can’t
help but take to them (well, the good ones!). I very much look forward to the
next instalment.
