Summary

Deadly Deceit is Mari Hannah's third gripping crime novel featuring DCI Kate Daniels.

Four a.m. on a wet stretch of the A1 and a driver skids out of control. Quick on the scene, senior investigating officer Kate Daniels and partner DS Hank Gormley are presented with a horrifying image of carnage and mayhem that quickly becomes one of the worst road traffic accidents in Northumberland’s history. But as the casualties mount up, they soon realise that not all deaths were as a result of the accident....

On the other side of town a house goes up in flames, turning its two inhabitants into charred corpses. It's seemingly unconnected with the traffic accident, and Kate sets about investigating both incidences separately. But it soon becomes apparent that all is not what it seems, and Kate and her colleagues are always one step behind a ruthless killer who will stop at nothing to get what they want.

Story, characters and pace all 5*

I really enjoy the balance of the story and the lives of the main characters weaving together. The pace pace of the story is just right, keeps your interest.

Meh

I feel like I had a lot of questions listening to this and don’t quite get the point of one of the story lines. The narration is confusing as there isn’t a pause between chapters or sections, she just keeps reading, so ended up rewinding a lot as I was confused to then realise it was because there was no pause! I quite like these books but yeah, this one wasn’t the best.

A gripping tale from start to finish. All the characters seem real and the plot is great.

excellent book but narration poor.

excellent story lines and gripping to the end. The narration however sounded like it was being read by a high school student and at times lacked the intensity required to conjure up the mindset.

Ridiculous plot

I have enjoyed the previous books in the series but this was very poor. Alongside a very implausible plot, to date it as set in June 2020 without acknowledging the national lockdown was a big error.

AWFUL NARRATION

Really struggling with this book.. the narrator drones on & on & on . . . will persevere a little longer, but may have to return it before I fall asleep with boredom !
