Hello, dear readers!

I am back and sharing a new review. The Body on the Shore by Diane M. Dickson is the first in the DI Jordan Carr series.

Available: Now

Formats: Kindle, Paperback

My Rating: 4/5

Goodreads Blurb:

A nameless victim, an elusive killer, and a puzzling case for a detective in a new role.

When a body washes up on Crosby Beach in Liverpool Bay, detectives quickly declare foul play. Yet they will struggle to establish the identity of the victim, let alone the killer. Leading the inquiry on his first murder case, DI Jordan Carr must marshal a somewhat motley team to build a picture of what happened one grim day on the Mersey. Like footprints in the sand, in time the clues will disappear. With a victim who has clearly concealed her own identity, it will require a journey into Liverpool’s underworld to shake loose the facts.

But once they have their man, the police still need to know why the woman was killed. And answering that question will be DI Carr’s biggest challenge.

My Review:

This was a really interesting read. I was curious how the team was going to do as they learn to work together. With a body that has no identify, the struggle to identify the victim has them asking many questions. The characters are well thought out and the book itself keeps you engaged. I often found myself leaning forward, anxious on what was coming next. There are gasp-worthy spots, and a few twists that will catch you off-guard. Be prepared to find a new character to love.

For those who really enjoy a good mystery, this series is one that you can really sink into. There are currently 8 books available, and so you can binge read to your heart’s desire.

Happy reading, my friends!
