This is the 3rd book in the DI Amy Winter series by author Caroline Mitchell and they just keep getting better.
While shopping with her sister, DI Amy Winter is admiring a Valentine’s Day window display of a perfect bride encrusted in diamonds and resplendent in lace. But then she notices blood oozing from the mannequin’s mouth. This is not a display but really is a dead body.
The subsequent post-mortem reveals the victim was left to die for all to see. A second victim is found shortly after and it emerges that both women were ‘Sugar Babes’ arranging dates with older men online.
DI Amy Winter is hunting for a psychopath and her radar is set off by the head of the agency behind the display who makes no attempt to hide his fascination with her serial-killer parents. Amy's biological mother, Lillian Grimes is currently appealing against her conviction, so her emotions are being pushed to the limits.
Once again the author presents an excellent plot while managing to deal with all the side issues from Amy's personal life without causing any confusion or distraction to the reader. Great plot, excellent characters and so well written.
Surely another successful novel for Caroline Mitchell.
I would like to thank both Net Galley and Amazon Publishing for supplying a copy of this novel in exchange for an honest review.
