Welcome to day two of the She Be Damned Book Blog Tour. She Be Damned is the new novel from M.J.Tjia and is full of suspense and drama.
The blurb:
London, 1863: prostitutes in Waterloo area are
turning up dead, their sexual organs mutilated
and removed. When another girl goes missing,
fears grow that the killer may have claimed their
latest victim.
The police are at a loss and so it falls to courtesan and
professional detective, Heloise Chancey, to investigate.
With the assistance of her trusty Chinese maid, Amah Li
Leen, Heloise inches closer to the truth. But when Amah
is implicated in the brutal plot, Heloise must reconsider
who she can trust before the killer strikes again.
I love a good crime story and I am rather fond of a historical novel so when you put the two genres together you get a winner from me!
I often find I can work out the ending half way through a book but this one kept me guessing right to the end. I read it in 24 hours as I couldn't wait to find out who the killer was.
I really enjoyed the character of Heloise Chancey, a strong independent women who suffers no fools. However its Amah that's the really interesting one! I am looking forward to new mysteries from them.
If you are looking for a great read for your holidays then She Be Damned is one for your list.
She Be Damned is available now in paperback and ebook formats.
