REVIEW:
The Party Season is a fantastic festive crime story that had me engaged from the start.
The story is in the point of view of multiple characters which works very well at allowing the reader to get to know individual characters fully. I enjoyed the chapters from the point of view of the killer as it helped you get into their mind and understand why they had taken this path.
The two lead characters, Eddie and Becky, are brilliantly written well developed especially given this is the 2nd book for them I felt I knew them even without reading the previous story.
I need to read the first now.
