Voorlopig de minste vd serie. Was een dikke pil en daardoor ook best heel langdradig..
Er zitten bepaalde delen in due volgens mij (hopelijk) bedoeld zijn om in latere boeken te gebruiken als nieuwe misdadiger, anders echt zonde, maar die waren er teveel aan.
On to the next!

Het was zeker een goed boek, maar het was gewoon niet zo pakkend als normaal. Ze hadden twee keer de verkeerde persoon op het oog waardoor het een beetje een uitgerekt verhaal leek. Wat wel echt een toegevoegde waarde had is dat ze rondom de moorden ook nog relatief gebeurde bij helen en Charlie in het persoonlijke leven. Hudson is een nieuw character die ook heel leuk is en hopelijk samen komt met helen.

I love the Helen Grace series, and I'm still enjoying them. I have to say that I was absolutely blown away by 'Little Boy Blue' and it seems like I'm still waiting for those heights to be surpassed. I found the storyline with Emilia to be a little overbearing, and I felt that a lot of it was superfluous and not entirely relevant to the story. I'm also not sure about this new DS but I guess we'll have to wait for the next book to see if he'll grow on me!

Hooray, after a disappointing previous book it's back to the Helen as we know her - although a lot of the focus lays on her friend and colleague Charlie.
The story is not the best in the universe but certainly one of the better ones in this series. Who is making the woods unsafe and killing off seemingly innocent camping folks?
There are some references to the other books but you can certainly read this one as a stand-alone.

Another cracker in this fabulous series. Helen Grace and Charlie Brooks are back with a new DC in their team (the handsome and slightly mysterious Joseph Hudson) and they have another horrific case on their hands.
This time there is a murdered on the loose within the darkness of the New Forest, his victims left out to be found in a staging that just doesn’t make sense. Well at least for a while. Helen and Charlie race against time to ensure the safety of all holiday campers, but the murdered always seems to be one step ahead of them.
Help comes from an unexpected direction this time and people’s dislike for another has to be put aside. This is a brilliant case, set in the beautiful forest (which slightly puts me of camping there!). It’s a proper leaving-you-on-the-edge book and one that you just have to keep reading to find out the truth.
Even though this is the eights book in this series, the author never seems to lose that spark the books need to keep the reader engaged. Well played!
