She read

This is the tenth in the DS Karen Hart series; it is the sixth I have read. It works well as a standalone. 

Teenagers cutting through an archeological dig discover a grisly sight. A dead woman is at the bottom of a pit, with a medieval torture device called a Shrew’s Fiddle attached to her.As  DS Karen Hart and her team investigate the limited clues and numerous suspects, a second brutal death occurs. 

This is a fast paced, well written mystery. I enjoy the main character, as well as her supporting team.  Karen  is engaging, capable, empathetic, and doesn’t suffer fools gladly. She also displays a good sense of humor. 

Fans of British police procedurals will enjoy this story, along with others in the series. 

Thanks to #NetGalley and @amazonpublishing #ThomasandMercer for the DRC.
