MY REVIEW
Jane Isaac has been one my favourite authors for years. I have read many of her novels, but this one is the most harrowing one.
In the Hampton with a houses and a mixture of cafes, shops,museums, theatre, and bars, devastation was about to rock their place of Hampton.
Ashleigh, Cass and Nia, are out on town on a Friday night, enjoying themselves. Until a man caused mayhem shooting innocent people outside a pub with a AK-47 rifle.
DCI Helen Lavery gets a call about the shooting. Helen knows gun crime is extremely rare in Hampton.
Officers and paramedics have to deal with a five people that have been killed and a numerous of casualties.
In the Shadows is my favourite book by Jane Isaac as she has really got into the heads of the people surrounded by injured people, this story was about helping each other, and how the police, paramedics interact with the injured.
I always love Jane Isaac’s writing in all of her books, but this one really did touch my heart with the intense scenes that kept me gripped throughout. I can honestly tell you all that In The Shadows by Jane Isaac, is a must buy, must read.
I would like to say a huge thank you to Legend Press for inviting me to take part in my favourite authors new release blog tour and for sending me the paper to read and review 😍
