Fallen by Linda Castillo
3.5
I wasn’t sure what to expect with this one. It looked fairly interesting and it was something different than what I have been reading recently.
I liked that the detective was part of this community so there is still a bit of trust but people were wary. She has some insider knowledge, she remembers the victim from when she was a child so she’s close to the case but not directly involved.
The case exposed many secrets and numerous lives were impacted. It’s amazing that one event can change so much. The ending wasn’t that unexpected but it was decent. Mystery solved, everything was wrapped up and there’s a little to be determined ending.
There was a little romance/maybe it was to humanize the detective a bit more. It’s not the main focus of the story at all. It was more randomly brought up to show the support she had. Definitely a mystery book and I really liked that.
This is the first book I have read in the series and it can definitely be red as a standalone, I didn’t feel like I was lacking any information. I think I would read another book in the series. It was a decent mystery and easy read, and I like when things are all wrapped up at the end. It was slow at times but it’s not completely detrimental.
