My Thoughts:

The third book in the Kat and Mouse crime series and another belter of a read!

I am absolutely loving this series. It’s a bit of a cross between a cosy mystery/crime thriller. The cosiness comes in the form of three wonderful characters, Kat, Mouse (Beth) and Doris. Although after reading this one, I am in awe of Doris as for someone approaching seventy, she shows she is not to be messed with!

It’s like catching up with old friends picking up a book in this series. I love the village feel that we get as Doris has moved into a new cottage that sounded very idyllic. Obviously being a crime book though, you need to have the odd murder to liven things up a bit.

The novel has two storylines running through it, one to do with the murders of two young females and the other for Kat and Mouse’s private investigating business trying to find a client’s son. Both were as intriguing as the other with some shocking outcomes that I really hadn’t expected.

Murder Unearthed was a novel I devoured in one sitting. The author grabbed my attention from the very first page and kept me there to the last. It’s a series you really get invested in as the reader can’t help but take to these three different but strong personalities. A highly enjoyable story that kept me guessing until the the end.

Murder Unearthed is available to purchase from Amazon.
