Reviews

I adored this fresh and fearless duo of private investigators, wise-cracking their way along the mean streets of Leeds in this rollicking crime caper Rachel Sargeant, author of The Perfect Neighbours

Lee and Jo are my two best girl heroes! Harper has in these two PI's created a team that I think will endure for a long time. I loved the humour that Harper imbued every page with. At the most poignant of moments, the gritty, down to earth humour had me chuckling Liz Mistry, author of Unquiet Souls

Absolutely brilliant crime read. Gripping and wittily written. Two kick-ass female protagonists. This book is a brilliant high-wire of a novel it has plenty of twists and turns, but it also has believable complex characters, and is also really very funny. Would recommend this to anyone SJ Bradley, author of Guest
