Dead Scared (Lacey Flint, #2)
by S.J. Bolton (Goodreads Author)
by S.J. Bolton (Goodreads Author)
To be published by Minotaur Books June 5, 2012
My sincere thanks to Alison Fisher, Library Marketing Coordinator, Adult TradeMacmillan for providing the e-galley for my reading pleasure.
Dreams, Darkness, Danger, Death!
If you're prone to nightmares, you might want to skip Dead Scared. If you love psychological manipulation, then this is the right book for you.
Bolton brings back characters DC Lacey Flint and by DI Mark Joesbury introduced in Now You See Me, and the tension between them heats once again. Joesbury recruits Flint to play the role of undercover student, Laura Farrow at Cambridge University. Cambridge has experienced a series of student suicides and though statistics would support a handful of students taking their own lives, these have similarities that seem of a suspicious nature. Flint is not there to investigate, mind you, just to observe but we know Lacey can't resist the challenge of the hunt.
Bolton does a great job in depicting her college setting, the natural progression of her returning characters, but where she really shines is in this roller-coaster ride of mental processes, dream state, falconry and phobias.
Bolton has produced another winner, one worthy of awards and should please old and new fans alike.
