Review - Committed by Chris Merritt

 

Six days to stop a deadly attack. And no one else believes it's real.

Former CIA undercover operative Ellen McGinley is battling to overcome PTSD when she stumbles upon a domestic terror plot. The deadly attack is due to take place in six days and will strike at the very heart of her homeland.

For Ellen, it's a chance to find redemption for her greatest mistake - one she will never allow herself to forget.

But no sooner than she alerts the authorities, she finds herself diagnosed as delusional and locked in a psychiatric ward. No one believes her story.

She's the only one who thinks the danger is real, which means she's the only one who can stop it.

Ellen must draw on all her old skills to escape, stay alive, protect her family, and find those responsible - before all hell breaks loose.


This was just incredible! I couldn’t put it down! 


I’m not going to lie, I was like is Ellen making it up, is it actually a real thing? Who knew? Brilliantly written and unraveled at a perfect pace. I loved how we also learned a bit about Ellen's past which was also her motivation for wanting to succeed this time round.


There was one element that I guessed correctly but I won’t give any spoilers! 


And the best bit is I think there’s more to come & I can’t wait!

Review - Stop Them Dead by Peter James

 



A ruthless crime. A race against time.

When a young farmer confronts intruders in the middle of the night he has no idea that just minutes later he will be left dying in a pool of blood. What’s more chilling is what the perpetrators were willing to kill for.

At the scene of the crime, Detective Superintendent Roy Grace soon realises this is no isolated robbery gone wrong but the tip of the iceberg of a nationwide crime wave, in which ruthless organised gangs are making more money from the illegal trade in dogs than drugs. A trade which pits him against some ruthless people who will kill anyone who gets in their way, because where there is greed, there is murder.




I just don't know how Peter James does it!!!




Book number 19 in the Roy Grace series and it was still as brilliant as the first! I have read all of the previous books but don't feel that you have to - yes there are things that are referred to in the book that have happened in previous books but he always gives you enough info to understand what's happened without going all through the full story. I can however say that if you read this as your first book you will 100% want to go back and read all of the previous ones!!




Back to this one - it is once again brilliantly written and I couldn't put it down, I needed to see how it ended. The storyline was really relevant to what had been happening during the covid 19 pandemic regarding puppy theft and there was some extra elements that were brilliantly added!




Fantastic read and I recommend to everyone.
