Synopsis:

When a rapist is found mutilated in a brutal stabbing, Detective Kim Stone and her team are called in to bring a swift resolution. But as further disturbing events come to light, it soon becomes clear that there is someone even more sinister at work.

With the investigation gathering momentum, whilst also trying to expose the secrets of a sick paedophile ring, Kim finds herself in the sights of a lethal individual undertaking their own twisted experiment.

 

Pitted against a dangerous sociopath who seems to know her every weakness, for Detective Stone, each move she makes could be deadly. As the body count starts to mount, Kim will have to dig deeper than ever before to stop the killing. And this time - it’s personal.

 

Review:

If you read and enjoyed Angela Marson's debut, Silent Scream, you will LOVE Evil Games.I didn't think it was possible for Marsons to improve on her first novel, but boy, was I wrong!

 

We learn more about DI Kim Stone; her relationship with her colleagues, her personality, her childhood, her family and her past. I was dying to find out more about Kim and just couldn't get enough. As soon as one thing was revealed, another revelation followed.

 

Evil Games is gripping, dark, disturbing and brutal. It sent me on a scary rollercoaster ride of emotions as I became totally engrossed in the story. I wish I could give this more than 5/5!

 

Thanks to Bookouture and Netgalley for providing me with an advance reader copy for review purposes.
