Little Boy Blue – M.J. Arlidge ★★★★★

Blurb; There are some fates worse than death . . .

Called to a Southampton nightclub, Detective Inspector Helen Grace cuts the duct tape from the asphyxiated victim and discovers she knows him.

A man from the double life she has concealed from her superiors, Helen is determined to find his murderer – while keeping their relationship hidden at all costs.

When a new victim is found, Helen works around the clock to stop her life unravelling. She’ll do anything to solve this case – but dare she reveal her own darkest secrets and lose everything?

And would even that be enough to stop this killer? 

Helen Grace Series in order; #1 Eeny Meeny #2 Pop Goes The Weasel #3 The Doll’s House #4 Liar Liar #5 Little Boy Blue #6 Hide and Seek #7 Love Me Not.

My Review; WOW! Why did I leave it so long to continue with this series? I am seriously regretting it now. What another brilliant story in the series. It was lovely to be back with the team and familiar faces (in my head ofcourse). 

Little Boy Blue is easy to devour, fast paced and contains short chapters. Parts can be very dark, intense and twisted. But, that is to be expected when the story does contain the BDSM and S&M culture within. Now I never thought those two words would be on my blog! This is another one of a kind story but a brilliant one at that. I am seriously loving this series, what am I going to do when it finishes? Little Boy Blue has a cleverly written plot which just makes you want to scream NOOOOO, it is a well thought out story/investigation.

I did not expect all of that to happen within the book too like WOW what an ending, how could they just leave it like that? I am going to have to start the next book very very shortly. I awarded a well deserved five stars like the previous books in this series as this series is turning out to be one I cannot and will not forget! I highly recommend this series to you all so far and I only have two more books left to review! Eek. Brilliant.
