“The blinding pain as a knife is pushed into his chest, eyes widening as his blood flowed straight from his heart and onto the ground. His panic as he realised he was dying. His terror”
The second instalment of the Detective Sergeant Gemma Woodstock saga continues with Into the Night. Following the murder of a high profile celebrity, Woodstock must get to the bottom of it, sooner rather than later. With a heavy media presence and an abnormal amount of suspects, this really is a “whodunnit” kind of book.
I was lucky enough to receive an ARC copy of this book through readers first. I had just finished the first book in this series and did not feel very invested within it. However, I was pleasantly surprised by this book and enjoyed it a lot more. Again, there is a realistic conclusion with plenty of detail throughout, which is what I enjoyed about the first book. Whilst I did enjoy this book more than the first it still didn’t hit the 5 star mark for me. The main character Gemma is very cold and not a likeable character at all. I found myself becoming more and more annoyed with her as the book continued. Also, I feel like this book maybe had a bit too much detail, making it feel quite slow at times and could have been condensed to enable it to be more of a fast paced novel. Despite this, I read this book in less than 24 hours, and I would definitely recommend it as I thoroughly enjoyed reading it.
