My Review - Crimson Lake - (19/5/17)
Crimson Lake - By Candice Fox
4 ☆ Atmospheric and full of Suspicion
This is the first book I have read by Candice Fox and it won't be the last!
Crimson Lake is a story full of suspense, suspicions and mystery.
When Detective Ted Conkaffey happens to be at the wrong place at the wrong time... He is falsely accused of the abduction and assault of a young girl.
Things go from bad to worse for Ted when he is put into prison pending investigation.
When Ted is finally released with not enough evidence the Branding is still hanging heavily over he's head and he's work colleagues and the town people are not willing to forgive... branding him a paedophile.
He's marriage falls apart due to the stress and he ends up losing he's daughter and hes life.
He has no choice but to get out of town where no one recognises him.
So he moves to Crimson Lake in the hope to maybe start again.
Unfortunately the past had a way of catching up with you.... things are no easier in Crimson Peak. He has the added pressure of the local police force.
It's here we meet Amanda Pharrell....she too has a very dark past....she is a convicted murderer!
However when the writer Jake Scully mysteriously disappears the two join forces to try and track down the truth!
The two of them are both equally intriguing characters.
Amanda has a dark past but it doesn't quite add up.... what isn't she telling Ted!
Ted can't resist delving into her past... but what is he about to uncover!
There are lots of stories being uncovered within this book, this is what makes it so intriguing and gripping.
You can't help but keep turning the pages as you want to find out the answers.
All the while leaving you hanging a little longer before the next feed of information.
I really liked Ted and Amanda, they make a great team. Both have issues, which seems to make them gel.
Amanda a bit of a lose cannon and Ted level headed. Perfect combination!
Crimson Lake has a very dark, Atmospheric feel to it. It's the perfect place for a suspense thriller.
Candice has cleverly weaved the characters and stories together. Making this a truly addictive read.
I have to mention there is a fair amount of crocodile talk lol
Overall a clever, addictive, page turner, keeps you guessing till the end.
Highly recommend to readers who love Crime, Thriller, Suspense, Detective, Mystery books
