Dead and Gone is book three in the Detective Annalisa Vega series. Fans will welcome this new story and those who have not read the series can start here and find out what it is about.
Ms. Vega is a Chicago police detective. Her victim is an ex-police officer who became a P.I. Is his death related to one of his cases? to the police? to Annalisa or her family? to others whom he knows?
To further complicate matters, there is a stalker on a college campus. Readers know that can’t be good. In addition, a double murder from years ago enters the picture.
Readers also delve into Annalisa’s private life and relationships. This helps to round out the story.
Dead and Gone is a good but gritty novel with a lot going on. Not for cozy fans but its audience should enjoy this title.
Many thanks to St. Martin’s Press/Minotaur for this title. All opinions are my own.
