Thank you Storm publishing and NetGalley for providing me with this eARC. All opinions are my own.

I enjoyed this book quite a bit, loved the rest and turns and uncovering the real killer. This book starts with Daryl approaching private investigators Seb and Birdie about her mother’s decade old murder for which her dad died in jail and she doesn’t not believe her dad did this. Seb and Birdie start digging deeper and finds out Helen ( Daryl’s mother ) was no ordinary woman but she was in a activist group that was investigating higher ups and Seb and Birdie is sure they are close to uncovering the real killer and they start becoming the target.

This was really interesting, even though I haven’t read the previous books in the series but I will be interested in reading them!

I’ve read all the previous books in this series so had a good understanding of background and dynamics but this could easily be read as a standalone if you wished although I think it’s a series worth reading. This book features the investigation of a cold case murder with the victim’s daughter wanting to know if her father really was responsible for the murder be spent the rest of his life in jail for. The investigation takes some fantastic turns and goes far further than I’d anticipated with the investigators themselves potentially at risk due to the investigation. This shows how difficult an investigation can be especially a cold case as they follow many leads and different avenues to get to the truth.

I loved this book so much, Sally right keeps you hooked from the first page. I've loved all her books from the very first one I read! Absolute page turner.
5 stars!

A totally gripping, addictive and chilling psychological thriller with a twist you won’t see coming. I LOVED it!

I was hooked from page one, and I think my favourite thing was I was guessing up until the end and that is my kinda read! I couldn’t put this one down!

Seb and Birdie the perfect investigative duo! I’d highly recommend this book!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ stars!

This was so good, I read it in one sitting! Seb and Birdie are asked to investigate a 38 year old case as the murdered woman's daughter didn't belive her father had killed her mother. Well, this case gets bigger and goes deeper than any of them expect. Once again, Sally Rigby has written a page turner, filled with awesome characters, tension and twists and turns aplenty. Brilliant.

The latest page-turner from Sally Rigby is her best yet. Sebastian Clifford and Lucinda Bird - Seb and Birdie - are fast becoming my favourite private investigators and here they well and truly take centre stage to unravel a complex, compelling plot.
The story is cunning, intelligent and expertly told. It is also poignant and realistic focusing on a possible miscarriage of justice that resulted in an innocent man spending the rest of his life in prison for a crime he did not commit.
The writing is supremely confident and the characterisation absolutely pitch perfect. This is an outstanding addition to a series set in the English Midlands that just keeps getting better and better. It's rare gems like this that make British Crime Fiction the best in the world.
