Little Boy Blue
ByPublisher Description
Detective Helen Grace faces her own dark compulsions in the twisty new thriller from the author of Pop Goes the Weasel and Eeny Meeny.
In the darkest corners of the city, there is a thriving nightlife where people can let loose and cross the lines of work and play, of pleasure and pain. But now that sanctuary has been breached. A killer has struck and a man is dead.
In a world where disguises and discretion are the norm, one admission could unravel a life. No one wants to come forward to say what they saw or what they know—including the woman heading the investigation: Detective Helen Grace.
Helen knew the victim. And the victim knew her—better than anyone else. And when the murderer strikes again, Helen must decide how many more lines she’s willing to cross to bring in a devious and elusive serial killer...

4.0
“This book had most of the typical things you expect and enjoy from a crime thriller novel.
Background story, a killer on the loose, a senior detective investigator with secrets of her own and enough characters that make you think you could have worked out the ending/who dunnit. Only you’d be wrong.
I never saw that ending coming. I have to admit I enjoyed the book instantly but the ending let it down for me. It just seemed a bit too far fetched and it kind of leaves you on a cliff hanger. There is a book following on from this one but I don’t think I will be reading it. That ending just left me a bit frustrated and not really wanting more from the next book.”
