I feel like a terrible human being whenever I give up on a book (which has only ever happened once, but it still kills me). After 100 pages, I still couldn't get into the story and felt no attachment to the detectives or police team. There are so many detective stories, that I have to be pulled into the plot right away in order to be invested in it. I just didn't get that feeling and lacked motivation to finish.
That being said, the general premise of the book is that a rich theatrical agent is brutally murdered. His house is going to need some serious cleaning up and hopefully someone will take care of his dogs, because that's what really matters in this story. Detective Tennison, who is bored out of her mind investigating petty theft, gets a big break with this case, and from there, the story begins.
If you like slow burn mystery books, the author's writing style, or want to get invested in a police detective series, by all means, read this book!
Thank you, BookishFirst, the publisher, and the author for providing me a copy to review. I'm not tagging any of you because I am a bad bibliophile.
