A Deathly Silence (DCI Helen Lavery #3) by Jane Isaac



Description from Goodreads:

"When the mutilated body of a police officer is found in a derelict factory, Hamptonshire force are shocked to the core. DCI Helen Lavery returns from injury leave and is immediately plunged into an investigation like no other. Is this a random attack or is someone targeting the force? Organized crime groups or a lone killer? As the net draws in, Helen finds the truth lies closer than she could have imagined, and trusts no one. But Helen is facing a twisted killer who will stop at nothing to ensure their secrets remain hidden. And time is running out. "

Having read a few of Jane Isaac's books and thoroughly enjoyed them, I had no hesitation in picking this despite not having read the previous 2 in the series and I wasn't disappointed.

This is an excellent police procedural/crime thriller with believable and, mostly, likeable characters and a completely absorbing story line.  Unlike some police procedural stories which, I feel, try to include different threads and mini-plots within the central story which can cause confusion, this one had a main theme and stuck to it which made the story unravel and develop naturally; this made is seem more authentic, plausible and engaging.

There is plenty of action and twists to keep any reader engaged and I definitely recommend to anyone ... in fact, I am happy to recommend any of Jane's books; you won't be disappointed.

Thank you to Legend Press and NetGalley for my copy in return for an honest review.
