I enjoyed Roz Watkins first novel in this series featuring DI Meg Dalton and was delighted to receive Dead Mans Daughter, her second, to read and review. It is an unusual thriller and police procedural set in a realistic Derbyshire setting with great character development.

The book is a pacy page-turner from the beginning when a young girl is found running through the wood covered in her father's blood. When DI Walton investigates his murder she has to battle to protect the girl from accusations that she is the killer.

Unlike most police procedurals Dead Mans Daughter covers issues such as the impact of heart transplants on their recipients, which I found most interesting. I enjoyed it very much and hope it has much success. Many thanks to NetGalley and HQ for the opportunity to read and review the book.

Well written storyline and kept my attention throughout. Would happily read more from this author. Would definitely recommend.
