The Secret Room (Maeve Kerrigan #12) by Jane Casey


 
Description from Publisher:
"A closed door.

An impossible murder.

2:32 p.m. Wealthy, privileged Ilaria Cavendish checks into a luxury London hotel and orders a bottle of champagne. Within the hour, her lover discovers her submerged in a bath of scalding water, dead.

At first glance it looks like an accident. No one went in with her. No one came out. But all the signs point to murder.

For DS Maeve Kerrigan, the case is a welcome distraction. But when shock news hits close to home, affecting her partner, DI Josh Derwent, she faces the toughest challenge of her career. And if she fails her world will never be the same again…"

Yet another cracker from Jane Casey in her excellent Maeve Kerrigan series that never gets stale and I absolutely devoured it.  I find myself sounding like a broken record in that I haven't got enough different words to describe how much I enjoyed it and despite it being the 12th in the series, it continues to feel fresh with the partnership of Maeve and Josh being a particular highlight of mine and one which I absolutely adore.  

I definitely recommend you read at least a few of the previous books before getting into this one, you won't be disappointed, but I think it's essential to get the character development and the important relationships in this series.

This is yet another gripping read and kept my grubby little eyes reading as fast as they possibly could.  At the end of the book, Jane asks to keep from mentioning any spoilers so I will keep schtum and say nothing about the plot or anything else but I will highly recommend this and the whole of the series ... believe me you will become as hooked as me! 

Thank you to the author, HarperCollinsUK, HarperFiction and NetGalley for enabling me to read and share my thoughts of this excellent addition to a brilliant series ... roll on the next one.
