About this deal

WOW! What an ending! I loved it! With 3 guns aimed you just don't know who it was that pulled the trigger, or if that all did at once. Spectacular ending.

Police procedural mystery/romantic suspense series set in Northumbria, England following Detective Chief Inspector Ryan.

She turned to him with tired brown eyes, which brightened immeasurably when she spotted who had arrived. Lowerson watched her reaction with long-suffering acceptance and thought that, if he didn’t like the man so much, he might resent being consigned to the role of Ryan’s ‘less attractive wingman’. Some of his colleagues had begun to call it the ‘Ryan Effect’, but the man himself seemed totally unaware of the impact he had on people, which was probably for the best. Balancing evil and darkness in this book are the author's vivid beautiful scenery descriptions which made me feel as if I were there, travelling through the beautiful Northumbrian countryside, with its lush green valleys and wooded dells. I actually had to google and learn more about the beautiful areas described such as High Force waterfall which I had never heard of! Here’s my only problem with the book: A word was found on Beth’s palm that said “Invictus.” When Lowerson asks what it meant the BOOK said “unvanquished,” but the READER said “I remain.” And that happened 3 times. Then when “Maneo” was written in with the entrails of 2 victims in was READ as “unvanquished” but the BOOK said “I remain.” The whole thing was crazy and needs to be fixed. Just then, the clouds shifted outside and the moon’s watery light shone through the tiny window onto the tall, menacing figure standing over her. She could see that he had changed his clothes, and they were covered in blood. Louise grew up in Ponteland and went to Darras Hall First School, Dame Allan’s and Central Newcastle High before going to London to study law.

Louise says she was travelling by train to Edinburgh one day. Passing Holy Island she remarked to her husband that it would make a great setting for a whodunit in the style of Agatha Christie (she’s a great fan). Read More Related Articles

LJ Ross is an internationally bestselling author, whose books have sold over 7 million copies worldwide. Ross, L. J. (2021). "The Cove: A Summer Suspense Mystery (The Summer Suspense Mysteries)". Dark Skies Publishing. ISBN 978-1912310913. Tačiau šįkart istorija visiškai kitokia. Nėra nei ritualinių žmogžudysčių, nei daug romantikos, nei pakankamai ramaus ir lėto knygos tempo. Čia visiškai pilna įtampos, greičio ir šiurpumų istorija! Istorija įtraukė nuo pirmųjų puslapių ir tikrai buvo sunku jos neskaityti. Kai vyko svarbaus ir žiauraus žudiko, pabėgusio iš kalėjimo, gaudynės, kaip galima veikti kažką kito, jei ne skaityti??Vos užvertusi ketvirtąją serijos knygą suskubau skaityti sekančią serijos dalį, nes intriga palikta knygoje "Angelas" tiesiog neleido nei minutei atsipalaiduoti, turėjau sužinoti kas nutiks toliau. Unlike the previous books, High Force was much more thriller than mystery. Coming in to the story the reader already knows whodunnit and there's only the question of why to keep wondering about. But this is fast paced and gripping, and I did not want to put it down. I couldn't help but race to the end. It is obvious as you read that the author knows the region. Living in the North East myself, I love the familiar landscape described within the passages. I love how I can recognise where the author is describing, I can plot everything out in my head. The DCI Ryan series is one very much of mystery but this book definitely had more of a darker edge to it. I was well and truly gripped. Ross was born and grew up in Ponteland, Northumberland, England. [10] She completed undergraduate and postgraduate degrees in law at King's College London, where she met her husband, and continued her studies in Paris and Florence. After spending most of her twenties working in the City as a lawyer, she began to feel it was time for change. [11] Publishing career [ edit ]

Ross inspektoriaus Rajeno serja yra viena mylimiausių. Taigi nekeista, kodėl tik pasirdžius bibliotekoje penktajai daliai, ją parsinešiau skaityti. O dar kai ketvirtoji dalis pasibaigė taip, kad buvo be galo smalsu sužinoti, kaip ten viskas vyko toliau.

DCI Ryan Series

At the end, following a breathtaking finale, the author leaves the reader with one or two questions in mind. Hmmm... will I find the answers in the next book? I'm dying with curiosity... Yes. And you’re DCI Ryan,’ she held out a hand and wished she’d had time to run a brush through her hair.” We see Edwards bait his hook to trap Ryan, and we follow Ryan as he finds clues and tries to avoid the traps he spots. Meanwhile, Ross can’t help reminding us about Ryan’s overwhelming appeal. He arrives at a crime scene and approaches the female sergeant who has begun questioning witnesses. Just to give you a sense of his 'superpowers':
