The Scandal by Mari Hannah
5.0
4.5*
Each Oliver and Stone book gets better and here, in the third, we are thrown straight into a tense scene with Nancy desperately trying to get away before her absence is spotted but she soon realises someone is following her.
Then a body is found in a Newcastle side street, a young man stabbed to death. Oliver and Stone are on the case but it’s a bit personal for Frankie because this is a childhood friend and neighbour – Chris Adams.
In this a beautifully woven story we follow the investigation as it leads to what Chris was writing an expose on and brings into danger someone very close to the two officers.
The cast of supporting characters are being brought more into this story which makes for a more interesting storyline as we can veer, at times, away from the strict police procedural to add layers and depth to the story.
Another wonderful and well written book which will keep you gripped and and leave you wanting more of these terrific books.
