Cara Hunter is the author of the Sunday Times bestselling crime novels Close to Home, In the Dark, No Way Out, All the Rage and The Whole Truth all featuring DI Adam Fawley and his Oxford-based police team. You can read these as standalones, but this installment is a little harder to get because it hasn’t been released in the US, so you have to get a foreign edition online. Gripping from the first page and not letting you go until the last word, we’re reunited with the characters we love. Cara Hunter vuelve con una nueva entrega de la serie del inspector Adam Fawley, que deberá descubrir quién ha provocado el fatídico siniestro y por qué.
But of course it's not all plain sailing and there has to be some misdirection and a few red herrings thrown into the mix as otherwise it wouldn't have been such a gripping read for us readers.De manera muy ingeniosa y sutil, la autora nos va llevando por donde quiere hasta hacerte cambiar de opinión sobre cada sospechoso a cada vuelta de página, y cuando piensas que ya cada pieza está bien encajada en su sitio y ya nada más puede pasar, ¡zas! Entiendo que ha querido presentar personajes y circunstancias, pero se le ha ido un poco de las manos. Si es verdad que cuando empecé el libro, empecé a tener mis hipótesis de los hechos como en todos los thriller, pero debo decir que he cambiado esas hipótesis muchísimas veces durante la lectura y aún así no he conseguido adivinar lo que sucedía realmente.
Her characters are well-developed, and it’s excellent to be able to follow them as they deal with each new case and the challenges it brings. From the author of CLOSE TO HOME and IN THE DARK comes the third pulse-pounding DI Fawley crime thriller. Pese a comenzar lento, engancha por los interrogantes que plantea, la investigación intachable y un final en el que todo encaja. Hunter has a way of getting you invested in the glimpses of backstories, from Fawley's marriage, to Verity's family drama, and Somers' love life. Taken my afternoon and filled it with engaging, exciting, edge-of-the-seat thrills and crime in the latest DI Adam Fawley book, No Way Out.
When the two children were pulled from what was left of the house, one deceased, one critical, the police couldn’t work out where their mother or father were. It was the perfect balance of personal and professional for me and I loved seeing the dynamic of the group, as well. The plotting is intelligently layered and each team member brings their own skills and experiences in advancing the investigation. The pace is maintained even though the atmosphere of monotonous, investigative activities are painted for a tenacious team of detectives to resolve. It's always a stand out aspect for me (check out a paper or hard back, not e-book, if you decide to read this series.
La primera mitad es lenta para ser un thriller, más aún para ser una novela de Cara Hunter, que nos tiene acostumbrados a ritmos mucho más trepidantes. Two children were dragged from the inferno: one, a toddler, was pronounced dead at the scene and the other, a boy on the cusp of his teens, died in hospital some days later. After only just reading “ In the dark” by Cara Hunter I was delighted, no let’s be honest I was over the moon to get the opportunity to review this book from Netgalley in exchange for a copy.
This case resonates with them, particularly Fawley, as he previously lost a child and his marriage is still reeling from that incident. But as well as Fawley having to deal with another case involving young children, which is always a reminder of the loss of his own young son, we are also privy to the fact that he has recently separated from his wife which is something not many on his team know. Flashbacks to the 317 days preceding the fire take the reader into the Esmonds’ home and provide a fly on the wall view into what exactly was unfolding and compel the reader to empathise and care about the deceased Sam, Matty and Zachary, making the investigation feel as relevant and personal as it does to DI Adam Fawley’s assorted team. The story moves between past and present, giving the reader insight, as the investigation progresses, into how and why these horrific events came about. Fawley’s narrative is presented in the first-person and those of his team in the third-person, making it clear who is leading the inquiry and the chain of command with Chris Gislingham overseeing his first major case as a detective sergeant.
This is a case that feels very personal to Fawley, two dead children who seem to have been failed by their parents making uncomfortable parallels with the death of his own son. En esta tercera entrega de la serie del inspector Adam Fawley después de "¿Quién se ha llevado a Daisy Mason?DI Adam Fawley and his team have a particularly poignant case to deal with here - not only are there children involved, but it was around Christmas time as well, and although DI Fawley’s team are an eclectic bunch, they’re nothing if not tenacious, and this case will eat away at them like no other has, and none of them will rest until they’ve resolved it. Quinn is in the front row with his tablet in his hand and his pen behind his ear (yes, I know, it doesn't make sense, but that is what he does). While it works well as a standalone mystery, No Way Out is, of course, best enjoyed as part of the Fawley series. The case takes in everything from financial data to word of mouth commentary from colleagues and older brother, Philip, to contributions from Matty’s school nurse and wife Samantha’s parents and old employer.
