DC Jack Warr is the main character in the first book of a new series by Lynda LaPlante. The book is fast paced and many characters were introduced in the first few chapters. I wish I had started with a character chart. I found I needed to go back and write down something. Jack and his girlfriend, Maggie moved from Devon to London to advance Maggie’s career as a doctor. Jack seems a little lost with no gumption to get a promotion. He was adopted and finds out his adoptive father is dying of cancer. He receives information about his real parents.
The police unit receives a case where a woman just released from prison is found dead in a fire in a cottage. There is also a lot of charred money found. Does this have something to do with a train robbery of millions in 1995. I was quickly drawn to Jack and I really liked Maggie. I think this series would make a great series. At times I felt like I was actually reading a script. Looking forward to the next book in the series. Thank you Zaffire and NetGalley for an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
