The Pvritan is an excellent and atmospheric mystery! It’s fast paced and keeps you wanting to read more.

Marti and Neil are called to a bizarrely, unsettling scene. A murdered man, ‘displayed’ with wings made out of his own skin. At first the detectives think this may gang related; perhaps an initiation that went to far. While digging into this theory, another body shows up and they realize that theory no longer stands. The way these people are killed is both gruesome and without a specific pattern, although the murderer does have a certain M.O. The killer has been leaving them a unique paper trail; scrolled pages from the Geneva bible that have been placed inside each victim. They must figure out who this murderer is and fast. Marti and Neil soon find themselves pulled into some depraved situations, but nothing will prepare them for what’s going to happen next.

This book had my heart racing a few times. The only complaint I have is how abruptly the book ends...I was hoping there’d be an epilogue at the end or something more. Overall, the book is a great mystery and thriller, I definitely recommend!

Thanks NetGalley Publisher and Author for this great ebook!

Detective Marti Zucco and her partner, Detective Neil Cavanaugh, are called to a crime scene in a public park in Boston. Upon their arrival they find the body of a man hanging from a tree displayed in the form of an angel with his eyes removed. Only later discovering that the murderer left an extract from the bible within the victims eye socket. With the victim linked to local gangs, Marti and Neil are on the hunt to find his killer but when the body of a fifteen year old girl turns up they realise this is more than a turf war murder. With the balance of Marti’s strong belief system and the quirkiness of Neil’s sense of humour, the duo find themselves investigating satanic cults and religious sects. Can they find the murderer before it’s too late?

This book was fantastic. I loved the historical element to the story involving the puritans which I never really knew anything about. The characters were great together, Marti with her recurring nightmares, caring for her Nonna and her determined head and Neil, the loveable clown, cracking jokes and someone who clearly watched too many movies. Neil was definitely my favourite of the two, the line he uses after meeting the satanic cult “They’re like a vampiric Manson family” definitely shows his ability to try and bring an element of laughter to an otherwise awful situation! This book is available on @NetGalley until 10 December 2020 and is currently available on Kindle Unlimited and I would highly recommend any crime lovers to give this a go and share your thoughts. Definitely a 5 out of 5 book for me!
