A WINTER KILL by Vicky Delany




I finished this book in one sitting... As soon as i received it by mail, i was on the couch devouring this little thing... Its a really short read...just over a hundred pages and the font was quite big, so it wasn't that hard for me to get through it as fast as i did...  After all, its a Rapid Reads book! :) It was fast, engaging and entertaining. 


Moving on to the plot, it follows a young police constable named Nicole Patterson, who comes across the body of a high school student, Maureen Grey, lying in a snow covered field outside of town. It soon becomes apparent that Maureen hailed from a very unstable family, shifting suspicion towards the drunkard father. 
Though under-qualified, Nicole starts an unauthorized investigation into the murder among the local folk, fueled by a personal obligation.


The author has blended a riveting plot with a host of interesting characters, tossed in a  mystery to solve and come up with a winner. It didn't take me long to plow through this one because i simply could not put this down. It had me guessing till the very last chapter and trust me, don't even try, you will never guess the ending!

  2. This sounds interesting and I actually love books that are short but don't feel like it's too short.
