Review: Never Look Back by Clare Donoghue

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.

Slough House is a dumping ground for British intelligence agents who've screwed up a case in any number of ways — by leaving a secret file on a train or blowing a surveillance. River Carter, one such "slow horse," is bitter about his failure and about his tedious assignment transcribing cell phone conversations.

When a young man is abducted and his kidnappers threaten to broadcast his beheading live on the Internet, River sees an opportunity to redeem himself.

Is the victim who he first appears to be? And what's the kidnappers' connection with a disgraced journalist? As the clock ticks on the execution, River finds that everyone has his own agenda.

Sergeant Major Crane is rarely called in to investigate cases of rape. But now he and his SID team must investigate two cases simultaneously. A young soldier claims he has been repeatedly attacked by a commanding officer, but is struggling to make a formal complaint. And a young woman is found raped and murdered in her home following a night out in Aldershot.

The only clues are witness statements claiming the attacker is a squaddie. When there is another attack chillingly close to home, Crane no longer knows who is innocent and who is guilty.

But is the killer really a soldier? How does he manage to operate in plain sight? And can Crane catch him before he strikes again?
