Deadly Encounter is the fourth book in the DI Sally Parker series. I do think it would be beneficial for readers to have at least read the first book in the series just to give you a bit of knowledge of Sally’s personal life.
I have to say I love a good cold case. It always fascinates me how a case left unsolved years before can hope to be solved years later. The work for the police must be even more painstakingly harder. Witnesses could be dead or their memory not as good as it was. I felt quite sorry for Sally and her team as they are really working against the odds.
What I love about Sally is her compassion. A lot of detectives in crime series’ are so hardened but Sally truly cares about the people she works with as well as the victim and the people involved. It makes the hunt for the murderer even more personal and I was backing them all the way.
Deadly Encounter is yet another gripping read that I read in one sitting. The author has a way of hooking you from the very first page right up until the very last. I really hope there is more to do with cold cases in future books in the series as I loved seeing how Sally and her team work in trying to solve it. A highly recommended series.
My thanks to the author for an advanced readers copy of this book. All opinions are my own and not biased in anyway.

Book four in the DI Sally Parker series and again this is a cracker of a police thriller . In this book DI Parker and her team have been asked to investigate cold cases and the first one they start with is the case of Craig Gillan, who has been in prison for the past 15 years charged with murdering his wife .
This is a fantastic police thriller and I didn't want to put the book down . I really love the way DI Parker is developing as a character and I love the way she has such a great relationship with the rest of her team, especially Jack. Another wonderful read by the talented M A Comley.
