My Review
I do love the Tyrone Swift series it is different in that it is a PI solving the cases that the police couldn’t and because he is a PI he doesn’t have access to the information the Police do and therefore has to resort to good old fashioned detective work talking to people and trawling through the information he does have. They make for a very intriguing read and Her Lost Sister is another brilliant addition to the series.
Two sisters on a ferry one stormy night. One is found drowned the other with a debilitating brain injury. Because they are relatives of Tyrone he agrees to investigate and find out what happened. The investigation takes him on a twisty turny journey through the life of Kelly, a recovering alcoholic who left behind her several people with very good reason to want her to come to harm but is that enough for them to kill?
Several possible attackers and only 2 people know the truth one is dead and the other has amnesia. Tyrone has his work cut out. To add to his troubles he has his daughter to take into account and the ongoing situation with Oliver plus a very stormy relationship with Nora.
A lot going on and even more to keep the pages turning. This is a brilliant read that will appeal to all readers of Crime Fiction.
