What really happened in that Oxford cellar…?
By sheer chance, a young woman and a small boy are discovered barely alive in the cellar of an old house in Oxford. The owner—an elderly man suffering from dementia—has no idea who they are or how they got there. As DI Adam Fawley and his team begin to dig deeper, another case unexpectedly starts to resurface… In the Dark is a mystery that unfolds slowly at first, but once the initial threads begin to unravel, the pace picks up nicely. What makes this book special is its structure: told through multiple perspectives, a mix of first- and third-person narration, as well as elements like interview transcripts and newspaper clippings. This is slightly demanding at times, but keeps things engaging and fresh. I picked this up at the library without realising it was the second book in a series, but it worked well as a standalone. All in all, it was an okay read. Nothing terrible, but nothing outstanding either.
this ain’t it
Normally, i’d give this book maybe 3.5 Stars but i gotta say, her books need major TW at the beginning. this book was so hard to read, at some points i had to put it down because i thought i was gonna throw up. the graphic detail of rape in this book is horrifying and the readers need to be made aware of that. Also, again, the ending mate, was so fucking unsatisfying and so annoying. would not recommend
