My Thoughts
FACELESS is the first book in the DI Rosalind Kray series.
It’s also the first Rob Ashman book I have read and I was impressed.
Roz is back at work after suffering horrific injuries in an
attack that also saw her husband killed. She suffers flashbacks, is not
coping well but even the stresses associated with finding a killer are better
than sitting at home and just remembering.
Told from the point of view of Roz and our killer, the layers
are slowly revealed as Roz realises these murders are not as random as they
first seemed.
It’s a tension filled read as Roz is not only trying to find
a killer before he strikes again, but she is also trying to avoid the political
machinations of her senior colleagues who are not always supportive of her methods.
Towards the end there’s a few twists that had me applauding
Rob Ashman’s plotting of this book. Not only do we have a killer bent on
vengeance but we learn about the faults and foibles of many other characters.
FACELESS grabbed my attention and held it from start to
finish. I highly recommend it.
