The Ex by Diane Saxon- Psychological/crime

Emily is furious. She has just learnt that her ex has recently got married. She

feels that if he only could see her again he would change his mind and be with

her. She tracks him down and comes face to face with his wife. Jenna is on duty

as a detective Sergeant when a call comes in of a sudden death. She arrives

at the scene to find the paramedics doing all they can for the victim who is still

alive. This brings back memories of when her police partner was shot right

next to her. She also has a trauma of the disappearance of her sister a few

years ago. She pulls herself together and speaks to the husband and he

suddenly yells about their little boy of eighteen months Joshua. Jenna

searches the house and the husband is the only one there- the little

boy is either missing or has wandered off. I enjoyed this. I like Jenna

and her tenacity and the fast pace of the read. We know whom the

protagonist is but there are twists and turns along the way. 

I didn't know that this was part of a series and although it stands alone

I did feel I was missing out on what had previously happened with

Jennas partner and her sister and most importantly the dog.Other

than that, yes it stands on its own, maybe just my curiosity.

A thoroughly enjoyable read.

The Ex Sometimes your past just won't let go... As a heat wave grips the country, DS Jenna Morgan is called to a domestic incident at the home of a young family in Ironbridge. Pregnant Imelda Cheetham-Epstein has been found unconscious by her husband, Zak with serious head injuries.  When Jenna arrives on the scene, she discovers something even more disturbing – the couple's eleven-month-old son, Joshua, is missing and the race against time begins to find him.
