Ted Conkaffey and Amanda Pharrell are ex cons and whilst Ted insists he is not guilty of the rape and murder of a young girl, Amanda will not talk about the killing of her friend she was found guilty of,when Ted moves to Crimson Lake hoping to get away from the vigilantes. his lawyer suggests he is introduced to Amanda and she is investigating the disappearance of a local man. This takes them to places they would really rather not be and Ted can't help himself wondering about Amanda's crime but this only seems to stir up trouble for him and with the harassment outside his house and the crocodiles living at the back of his house he feels even more trapped. I did find the introduction of so many characters a little overwhelming but when it all came together I understood the reasons . What with the criminals, crocodiles and I must not forget the geese it was a great read.
Thank you to NetGalley for my copy of the book.

I thought the first book was jaw dropping, well this second book doesn't disappoint in any way

I was hooked from the start and it was an amazing rollercoaster I even found myself telling Khalid men no! Ted needs him to prove his innocence. But I should have known Candice would ensure there would be a trail of evidence to eventually find the truth.

As for Amanda I love her character she is one tough cookie who has a quirky funny side to her she makes perfect side kick to Ted

I also have to say thank you for keeping the geese in the novel I love those geese and also Celine their new addition

Please tell me Candice is writing more novels with this amazing duo in they are too good to lose

This was an amazing book about a policeman falsely accused of the rape and murder of a child. He was freed due to lack of evidence but most people still believed him guilty. The story shows how this affected his life. He joins up with some fascinating people along the way. His efforts to find the actual killer and also carry on his life as a private Investigator. The conclusion built to a real crescendo and finished on a hopeful note. Excellent read

Thank you for allowing me the opportunity to read this book. It’s one of those books that sucks you in from the first chapter. Hard to put down. Great storyline, brilliant Funny and serious characters. For a work of fiction it feels almost real when your reading it. And it’s a sad fact that it actually happens in real life. Brilliant book worth every star it gets.

OMG what a fantastic follow up book that was to read, I literally didn't want to put the book down until I had finished it. I thoroughly enjoyed the first one and the second is even better! I was literally gripped from the first page right to the last one!
