Book: Broken


This sort of followed on from the Ladykiller but you could have read it out of order if you wanted to (unless you remember EVERYTHING you read in a book). Again it was great trashy crime.

Summary: Leading an investigation into the neglect and abandonment of a number of young Grantley children throws DI Kate Burrows into contact with the most vile and repugnant of criminals. As a mother herself, Kate finds their crimes almost incomprehensible. And with the case becoming ever more sinister, she knows she needs to find answers quickly.

Book: Ladykiller

Back into my crime spree. hadn't read a Martina Cole for ages and she is just as good as I remember. This was fairly predictable etc. but still a great trashy read!

Summary: George Markham has a nasty little hobby, one that erupts into an orgy of viscous sexual depravity. Patrick Kelly is a hard man. His one soft spot is his daughter, and when she falls victim to the Grantley Ripper, Kelly wants revenge. The DI in charge of the case is Kate Burrows. She feels for Kelly but her growing involvement with a known villain is putting her career at risk... As the forces of law and order and London’s underworld converge in a huge manhunt, Kate fears she’ll lose everything she’s ever cared about... to the ladykiller.
