Sunday Morning Coming Down, Nicci French

Sunday Morning Coming Down opening line: All at once the flat was full of noises.

My blurb:

Dean Reeve made it very clear that he was going to look after Frieda. But what can she do when someone else seems to want to get in the way of Dean? How can she protect her friends from being attacked or even killed? And where will it leave her in the end?

Sunday Morning Coming Down

It’s always darkest before the light comes. In the chilling seventh instalment of the bestselling, critically acclaimed Frieda Klein series, evil looms but this time it’s far too close to home.

Psychotherapist Frieda Klein’s home is her refuge until she returns to find it has become a disturbingly bloody crime scene. Beneath the floorboards the police have found the body of a man she had hired to help protect her. The killer’s message is all too clear: you’re mine.

When those closest to Frieda begin to be targeted, the picture becomes more skewed: the patterns unclear.

Unless Frieda can find and stop whoever is threatening her friends and family, her love and loyalty could come at a truly fatal cost…

My verdict:

It has been nearly 2 years since I last read a novel by Nicci French so it took me a while to get all the characters of the novel in place in my mind. I enjoy the writing style of this collaboration and once again I am looking forward to the next installment.
