Interpretation In Favor Of Books Sleep Tight (DCI Tom Douglas #3)
How far would you go to hold on to the people you love? When Olivia Brookes calls the police to report that her husband and children are missing, she believes she will never see them again. She has reason to fear the worst; this isn’t the first tragedy that Olivia has experienced. Now, two years later, Detective Chief Inspector Tom Douglas is called in to investigate this family again, but this time it’s Olivia who has disappeared. All the evidence suggests that she was here, in the family home, that morning. But her car is in the garage, and her purse is in her handbag – on the kitchen table. The police want to issue a national appeal, but for some reason every single picture of this family has been removed from albums, from phones, from computers. And then they find the blood… Has the past caught up with Olivia? Sleep Tight – if you can. You never know who’s watching.Define Books During Sleep Tight (DCI Tom Douglas #3)

Great who-dunnit murder mystery! At first you think it's a cut and dry story involving an abusive relationship but then it surprises you with some great twists! I even teared up at one point. Good read!By far my favorite book in this series. Clever, fast-paced, with lots of twists and turns I definitely did not expect!Find more reviews and bookish fun at http://www.princessandpen.com
Started off strong, but then fell flat. Lots of parallels to Only the Innocent, the first book in the series. A domestic/emotional abuse plot again. At the end, DCI Tom Douglas knew that the police had not solved the case correctly (again) but he ignored it (again). The plot was predictable. The writing, however, has improved compared to book 1. It could definitely still be condensed, though. I hate the way the entire book gets explained by the characters themselves at the end. Totally
Sorry but this book was boring. Had to start skimming just to get to the resolution. Predictable.
I went into this story ignoring the 1* reviews and excited by the over 2k 5*. I do want to admit that I was hooked from the beginning. The mystery of who did what had me. But at about 30% it was very clear what was happening. No mystery or mind thrilling at all. And that sad attempt at a love story with the cop? Very boring and like the attempted scandal w the cops partner, irrelevant. Seriously, how did that distraction contribute to the overall story? Another dissapointing thing was the back
I could easily give this five stars but have to refrain from over-five-starring books lately. So 4.5 stars it is - this was a bit confusing sometimes, especially the end. Good, quick but exciting read. Though short, the drama and mystery are well described and thought out. For the most part, I think this story could be true! That in itself is a sign of a good book, in my opinion. From the authors website, it sounds as if this will be made into a series. I love police procedural series so great
