Medusa- Stewart Giles-Crime
Miranda is back! This time she has escaped from death row where we left
her in the last book and she is escaping hoping to get to Mexico in a way
only Miranda knows how. The second thread of the story is Miranda in
a high security unit back in England after she has been recaptured.
This is the thirs in a series and does need to be read as such.(Miranda
and Mistress- the first and second in the series were both 5* reads
from me)There is something about Stewart’s writing that makes you
want to turn and turn and turn. Miranda as we know is not the nicest
of people (Ok so that’s the understatement of the year) but she is
incredibly clever and somehow you take to her as she carries on
her murderous spree caring for no one- or does she?
DI Harry Swales is on the case but has little jurisdiction being away
from home. Then there is rather a farce over who has rights over
the prisoner once caught. One side of the pond verses the other-
an interesting premise that made me smile in parts. A clever
concept as ever from Stewart and one I raced through- always
the sign of a good book. Brilliant- can't wait for the next one.

From #1 bestseller Stewart Giles comes the final book in the MIRANDA Trilogy
Miranda is back.
She's escaped from Death Row and her thirst for murder is stronger than ever before. Detective Henry Swales has other ideas. But will he be able to stop the woman who has caused him more heartache than anyone else in his life?
As the sun sets on Death Row and the bodies continue to pile up, Miranda's bloodlust grows. Nobody seems able to stop her.
Then she makes a mistake and is caught.
And just when Detective Swales thinks it's all over, he finds himself involved in the most bizarre judicial farce imaginable. Nobody appears to know who is responsible for punishing this monster.
Will Swales stand back and bear witness to this perverse justice or will he resort to his own personal form of retribution?
This is a twisted psychological story that will stick in the mind for a very long time.
