I struggled with this one. The fact that the first chapter had "no cap" written three times in five pages set a rough start for me. I got through it, and it wasn't a bad book, but I was hoping for more. I will try to read more from this author to give him another chance.

This is a good detective investigation that leads to a wild chase! If this is the type of book you like, you’ll love this one! It kept me guessing until the end.

I absolutely love Theo Baxter's writing. I didn't realize this was a series until after I started it. But luckily it could be read as a standalone. I didn't feel like I was missing anything and it kept me on the edge of my seat.

This started with a bang and didn't let up! I don't usually enjoy crime stories, I'm more of a thriller/ domestic noir type gal but this really had me just as hooked and invested! Very well plotted out and I flew through it over the wkend! Really good read

Honestly, I went into this book without reading the first four of the series but I didn’t feel like I was missing out. I loved the chapter titles, I feel like you don’t see that very often anymore. I felt like I was constantly in suspense of something happening next and I love that. I related to both characters through both perspectives and I think that’s hard to do for an author. Very quick read, highly recommend. I would absolutely buy this book for myself and a copy to gift to a friend!

She seemed like an ordinary housewife. Until she was brutally murdered! When a woman from an affluent LA neighborhood is brutally murdered, Detective Marcy Kendrick and her partner Angel Reyes are sent to investigate! Great read!!! I am loving this author! I swear every book is awesome so far that I’ve read!! This book had great suspense, intriguing, action, murder, mystery, a great who done it and a few wild twists and turns! The story was very interesting and kept me glued to my kindle! I highly recommend reading this book! Thank you NetGalley, Theo Baxter and the publisher for sharing this book with me!

I enjoy books by Theo Baxter. Pay Back is the latest. It was a great mystery thriller that kept me up way past bedtime.

This is another very good read in the series featuring Detectives Kendrick and Reyes. I like the LA setting and the developing characterisation, Frank is becoming an interesting addition to the character list. The plotting is good and I was hooked in from the start when a woman is found murdered in her home. The tension built up nicely right to the end and the ending left me eager to read the next book in the series which I would recommend to lovers of crime thrillers. Thanks to Net Galley for my ARC.
