Summary

Dallas Homicide detectives Tori Hunter and Samantha Kennedy investigate the murder of a Catholic priest who is found naked and strangled to death. A sex scandal threatens to erupt and cover-ups are soon revealed as their only suspect is found shot dead - mere hours after the murder.

Soon details of the murder begin to surface, and the secret life of a well-loved priest is exposed. Lies and deceptions unfold as the detectives work to solve the case - even as their superiors demand it be closed.

Fantastic story.

I Loved this storyline with Hunter the detective. It is a great character and an excellent story that enthralled me and kept me wanting to know more and more.
Abby Read this audio book with complete perfection from the beginning and definitely worth checking out.

crime

this is a very good crime story, tori and sams' relationship continues but the main focus is on the murders of a beloved priest, the main suspect, and housekeeper. trying to find a motive eludes the homicide team, and the final twist was completely unexpected.
flawless narration as always.
book 3 straight away they're that good.

Follow up.

I love a crime story. Great follow up to book 1. Enjoyed meeting up with the homicide gang again. A little disappointed that Sam didn't feature more, but Casey seems to be a good addition. Super narration, as always.

Free audiobook......

Free audiobook from the plus catalogue, happy it was free because it is very similar to Book One (not as violent fortunately) !
I like that the characters are evolving and the introduction of Casey. Like the first book there are plenty of holes in the plot and unanswered questions but worth a listen. I find this is a very different Gerri Hill to the author that gave us 'The Neighbour, Pelicans Landing and The secret pond' !

BOOK 2 - HUNTER'S SERIES

Loved this book 📚 tho' totally different from the original which I read years ago...
This is great story telling with loveable characters, with a twist of lesbian chic - what's not to love 💕

The book was ok

This book was ok. I liked the first book better. The book reads like a robot, as so does the narrator.
