A Cold Cold Heart by John Nicholl #BlogBlitz

I am so excited to share my 4.5 star review for A Cold Cold Heart by John Nicholl with you today on Blog Blitz


The Book

DI Gravel and his daughter Emily are oblivious to the terrible danger she is in when she accepts a job working for the solicitor Charles Turner.  

Meanwhile Gravel is on the hunt for a serial killer. And when Emily becomes the killer’s latest obsession, the murderer will stop at nothing to make his grotesque fantasies reality.

But as further bodies are discovered, the killer seeks to befriend DI Gravel and misdirect his investigation.   

How can you catch a killer who is hiding in plain sight? Can DI Gravel and Emily come away from this case with both their lives in tact? 

Sometimes evil wears a suit...

My Thoughts

From the moment I laid eyes on the cover of A COLD COLD HEART I couldn't wait to read it. It is one of those covers that has read me written all over it. I have to say the author doesn't disappoint with this cracking page turner. Which grabs you from the start  unfortunately for me life got in the way and this book took me two sittings to read. But If it hadn't I know for a fact that I would of devoured it in one sitting. I was stitching to find out what was going to happen next.

Having read the author's previous book's I was familiar with the DI Gravel so for me it was nice to get to know him more.For those of you that haven't read any of John's books before I can assure you this can be read has a standalone.

In this story  DI Gravel  on the hunt for one sick and twisted serial killer. But then things take a turn for the worse when Emily DI Gravel's daughter ends up his latest victim and we follow a story of cat and mouse.

With the authors vivid and gruesome descriptions that made me squirm. This isn't for the fainthearted, I should add. This is a fast paced easy read that with characters that jump out the pages, where I could clearly hear their voices in my head. I adored Detective Sergeant Laura Kesey and I am looking forward to finding out more about her in the next book.  

I loved how the chapters alternate from the investigation to the serial killer each chapter leaves you hanging. This is certainly one nail biting read that will keep you on the edge of your sit. which I highly recommend giving it 4.5 stars.
