A Mysterious Review of Never Look Back by Clare Donoghue. A Novel of Suspense.
Review summary: This is a thrilling, suspenseful police procedural. The cold snowy nights helped make the action scenes even more chilling and gripping. The characters are well-drawn and fully realized. If the first of a series, it is a strong start. If not, it is a solid crime novel that is well worth seeking out.

Publisher synopsis: Detective Inspector Mike Lockyer is the head of homicide on the South London police force, and with three bodies on his watch and a killer growing in confidence, he and DS Jane Bennett are frantically trying to find the link between these seemingly isolated incidents. Slowly, the case is also invading Lockyer's life outside the office, and the fact that his daughter matches the victim profile is putting a painful strain on their already fragile relationship.
Meanwhile, Sarah Grainger has a shadowy stalker following her every move. Once an outgoing London photographer, Sarah has begun locking herself away, almost too afraid to leave the house. Now her stalker's actions are escalating. He's desperate to tell Sarah a secret … a secret that Lockyer needs to know.
