A review by lauraellis
Clean Break by Val McDermid

4.0

This time Kate (the detective) B. Is chasing after a picture stolen after she set up the security system, while she and her boyfriend are going through a rough patch due to her prior case, in which he was involved, and his fragile self-esteem. Also involved is a friend of hers who is also a —supposedly—retired thief. It was quite exhilarating in parts.

2020 note: I’ve never been able to bring myself to read any of the author’s other very successful series because I love this series so much.
