The Murders at Fleat House By Lucinda Riley |The Works

Even though at first I wasn't impressed at some point, the story gripped me, and I couldn't put it down! I personaggi sono abbastanza sviluppati e sopratutto mi è piaciuta molto la protagonista,Jaz,una donna forte, intelligente, molto reale anche negli errori che commette e da cui si rialza; tradita dal marito suo collega, ha deciso di mollare il lavoro in polizia, ma il capo decide di smuoverla e farla tornare in azione, essendo una detective talentosa e trovandosi anche nella zona del reato che sembra essere di secondo piano ma che si rivela invece un caso da primo piano Tenemos un escenario principal que es el internado inglés St.Stephen, enmarcado en una zona rural de Inglaterra. Una muerte que investigar y una serie de personajes que iremos conociendo a lo largo de los capítulos. And because mystery books were not her usual genre, I was not sure what to expect, but I certainly had a huge surprise as a worked my way through it. I absolutely love Lucinda Riley’s work but I’m not entirely convinced that I enjoyed The Murders at Fleat House as much as I’d hoped.

So yes, this section isn’t really about something I didn’t like in the book, but rather more about what I did like. Charlie is exposed as an arrogant bully, and those around him had both motive and opportunity to switch the drugs he took daily to control his epilepsy. But the local police cannot rule out foul play and the case prompts the return of high-flying Detective Inspector Jazmine 'Jazz' Hunter to the force. Jazz has her own private reasons for stepping away from her police career in London, but reluctantly agrees to front the investigation as a favour to her old boss. The characters are wonderfully flawed, so no-one is completely off the hook as far as suspects are concerned.Reunited with her loyal sergeant, she enters the closed world of the school, and as Jazz begins to probe the circumstances surrounding Charlie Cavendish’s tragic death, events are soon to take another troubling turn. No es una novela de conejos sacados de la chistera. Riley nos va dejando las piezas, juega al engaño y al despiste, pero nos permite ir armando el caso poco a poco, una pieza aquí, otra allá y la definitiva, no demasiado pronto.
