Chasing Shadows

Justice, Snark, and a Fantastic Backstory — Erika Foster Delivers Again

This series is one I look forward to every year. I have rated everything a five star but I have meant every five stars I have given and this is no exception. Actually, if I am being honest I loved this so much more then the other because I feel like it made the story so much more well rounded. I always wondered about Erika and Mark’s backstory and this book is perfection. I finished this in one day in two long sittings. I am sitting here smiling just thinking about how good this was. Now lets get to what the story is about.

In book 9 of this amazing series we finally get the details of what happened on that day 10 years ago. Ow, when Erika’s husband Mark and her team were killed in a police raid in Manchester. That day changed her life and the way she sees the world. Now on an investigation into a murder, she comes face to face with the man responsible, only he claims to be someone else. Then she is told that the man who killed Mark is dead.

Now if you know Erika at all you know that she is not going to take this. She knows it was him and she wants justice for her husband. Even being put on stress leave isn’t going to stop her. And her loyal team and partner are there to help her.

This book was so good!! i just love Erika and her way of doing what is right, even when she is told otherwise. She is smart, determined and snarky and I love it. I cannot recommend this series more for those who love a good gritty police procedural.

If you haven’t read anything by Robert Bryndza I suggest starting with book one of this series then moving on to the West Elm series and the one rom-com book I have read by Rob is also good. So go read something and fall in love like I did.
