Description from Goodreads:
"The man lay on his front, his arms and legs bound and pulled up with a rope connecting the two. His head was arched back, so he faced the curtains, and there was masking tape over his mouth. Erika gingerly reached out and checked his pulse.
Yep. Dead all right.
When Detective Erika Foster finds politician Neville Lomas naked, hog-tied, and dead in his own bed, skittish higher-ups at the Met quickly rule the death from natural causes. Case closed . . . until two months later when a well-known casting director and a star footballer are found murdered and tied with the same knots. The Met can no longer ignore what’s staring them in the face: there’s a serial killer loose in London, and they’re out to settle a score.
As Erika and her team investigate, things take a strange turn as CCTV footage turns up five female suspects . . . and they’re all identical.
In the hunt to identify the women, Erika is outpaced at every turn by an elusive sex worker with dirt on enough powerful men to make the Met’s top brass nervous – and desperate.
As time ticks away until the killer strikes again, it’s up to Erika to untangle the web of evidence and answer the critical questions: What ties the victims together, who else is caught up in this scandal, and how far are the higher-ups willing to go to protect their own?"

Once again, this is a peach of a book from an author that I am most definitely a fan of.
This might be the eighth in this series but don't let that put you off; it reads well as a standalone and whilst you have missed some of the character development, Mr Bryndza's writing is so good that it's not really an issue.
The characters are really strong, the plot riveting and the pace is perfect. Who is killing high profile men and leaving them in uncompromising poses with the only evidence being a polaroid photograph with the name "Annabelle" written on the back ... who is Annabelle, how can she be stopped before she strikes again and who is going to be next?
This is a gripping and tense read for fans of police procedurals, serial killer stories and crime thrillers and one that I can highly recommend along with the rest of Robert Bryndza's work.
Many thanks to the author, Raven Street Publishing and NetGalley for enabling me to read and share my thoughts of Lethal Vengeance.
