Another good adventure for DCI Ryan and his Team. Becoming a bit predictable now, but a nice happy ending. Need to read the next one to see who the mysteries woman is watching!
Another great murder mystery with DCI Ryan and Anna, Phillips, MacKenzie, Lowerson and Yates. They make a wonderful team, book after book. Whether it’s about a murder or two or a serial killer it’s always such a thrill to read it and be shocked when you find out who the killer is.This was about two murders but one was not a murder after all but an accident, though the one accidently killed was a blackmailer, so that was no great loss. The next WAS a murder and she certainly didn’t deserve it. TH...
This was a corker of a read that let us (the readers) take a bit of a breath from the horrific going-ons of the past .... if you can call 2-3 murders before your wedding taking a breather!
L J Ross is my hero!! I love her story of how she started to write her first book while she was on maternity leave and I’m sure she had no idea that 6 books later she would be living her dream as a full time writer! This wonderful series is a big personal favourite of mine and whenever I pick up one of her books I feel as though I’m amongst friends! And this time I really was, as I noticed a certain Jen Lucas making an appearance in a rather different role to her usual blogger extraordinaire!I w...
I thought in the book #5 that the Hacker was not dead, but from what I've read here he is... mmm... I was looking forward for him to reappear...Well, it doesn't matter anymore...Here the mystery is like an Agatha Christie's one with all the corridors and old lights in the house and the mysterious comings and goings. I also enjoyed (view spoiler)[that there was not one, but two killers! (hide spoiler)]The solution was very sad and I couldn't be sorry for the victim who was not a nice person at al...
Detective Chief Inspector Maxwell Ryan and his fiancée, Doctor Anna Taylor are spending some downtime after the traumatic events of the previous case. Both their homes were lost in different ways during the course of the investigation and, although that was bad enough, it could have been a lot worse. They’ve been enjoying a quiet temporary stay at a holiday cottage in the grounds of the beautiful Cragside estate. Invited to the staff summer party, Ryan was less than happy about dressing up for a...
And again another superb addition to this series. DCI Ryan and Anna are a real treat. As are Frank, Denise and Jack. Amazingly clever, this one wasn't as fast-paced, but equally good as the previous books.. The epilogue was deeply moving. A real happy end but of course with a cliffhanger. On to the next book ….
In the sixth DCI Ryan mystery the setting is the beautiful Cragside, we’re back with Ryan and Anna who are living in a cottage on the Cragside estate. Invited to a Victorian style murder mystery party, what should be a fun evening ends up being a real life murder mystery and Ryan finds himself in the thick of it again.I seriously have a soft spot for Ryan, he’s a gentleman and obviously rather dishy too. I’m really enjoying following his story and his relationship with Anna (even if I’m a wee bi...
Cragside is the sixth book in the DCI Ryan Mysteries and what a series this has turned out to be even though I absolutely loved the first book Holy Island each one just gets better and better. LJ Ross always brings us something new. This is definitely an Agatha Christie eat your heart out story. And has always I loved it. When I finally got chance to read this I devoured it in one sitting.Yes I am a little late to the party and wish that I would of had chance to read it sooner because it is that...
This one was enjoyable but lacked that something special that the previous books had. It was definitely less dark than the previous installments, which I appreciated, but the mystery itself wasn't quite as intriguing. Maybe I'm becoming inured to the lovely storytelling of L.J. Ross. I sure hope that isn't the case. However, erring on the side of caution, I'm taking a quick break from her stories so that I can fully enjoy the books to come.2.75 stars.On a side note, one of the things that I've e...
Set in an area I know and love I think this is the best one so far in this series. The author has dispensed with the slightly silly cult type themes of the early books and has gone in a good direction with a solid who done it. It’s a fast, easy and entertaining book.
I love the books by L.J. Ross, this series is spectacular, each book is a surprise.On this occasion, both the setting and the plot of the story reminded me of the incomparable Agatha Christie. Novel very well written and with the sensation of suspense lurking from the first page.About the characters, what can I say? I love Ryan and his entire team.
