Devil Smoke is the second novel in the Beacon Falls series. Though not essential, I think it would be beneficial to have read the first one so that you have a bit of background for the cold case unit and how the team came about.
It was good to catch up with the cold case team again and I loved how this novel focuses more on a different member of the team so that no doubt as the series goes along we can get to know the team members better.
I loved everything about this novel. From the way it starts to how I was gripped through out. It is certainly full of mystery and suspense and kept me on my toes. At times it is quite emotionally charged which I think made the story even better as I truly cared about Tommy and his daughter Nellie and I had every empathy to what they were going through.
Devil Smoke is more tamer than Last Light which is the first in the series but I actually think it works in it's favour more as I found it more enthralling. Where as Last Light was quite action packed, Devil Smoke plays with your mind more and has you over thinking, trying to work out what's actually going on. Of course, as usual, I had no clue until it was there in front of me.
A definite must read for any crime fans.
My thanks to Maisie at Canelo for a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
