Harriet, a DCI, finds herself in hospital, extremely ill and feels very sorry for herself. Even more so when she’s told she’s been poisoned. Is she just unlucky or are there anymore victims? This book had such an awkward and stilted style of writing and it was very off putting. It was “dated” but not in a good way. There was so much repetition in dialogue where the characters would keep repeating themselves. It sounded like something worth reading but sadly it wasn’t. I won’t be reading anymore of Harriet’s adventures!

I had a difficult with this book. I just couldn't get into the storyline. Some of the characters were confusing, some were weak. It doesn't help that it was book5 of a series.

I would like to thank the author/publisher/Netgalley for the opportunity to read the book in exchange for a fair and honest opinion.
