The characters and background were so good, I am thinking of buying the first in the series, 'Hades".

If you read nothing else this year make your book this one. It will grab your attention in the first few pages and you will not put it down until you have read it cover to cover. An absolutely fantastic crime novel from an amazing author. If you don't read this you will truly by missing out. Books with fully developed, exciting and capable female characters are few and far between but you will fall in love with Eden instantly!

New book. As advertised. Good value. Good story well written.
The first in this series was HADES which I highly recommend you read before reading EDEN.This time around Eden's partner Frank Bennett has been recouping from injuries he received in HADES. He's also drinking way too much and is being forced by the department to see the shrink before being allowed back to work.Meanwhile Eden sends Frank to her father .... he has an investigative job involving the disappearance of an old flame many years before. At the same time Eden is going undercover at a semi-cult to find what happened to 3 missing women. putting her life in extreme danger.The book follows both these case plus it takes the reader to Hades' beginning how he became what he is.I found it interesting but not as exceptional as HADES. At times I found it ... MoreThe first in this series was HADES which I highly recommend you read before reading EDEN.This time around Eden's partner Frank Bennett has been recouping from injuries he received in HADES.

At times I found it confusing over who was where doing what and when.The characters are still very intriguing but I can't see this series going any further than it has.I did give it a 4 star rating ... I felt I had a vested interest in seeing where the author took the characters. And the last 10-12 pages were breath-taking!My thanks to NetGalley / Kensington Books for supplying the digital copy in exchange for an honest review.
Am reading this hoping it has a climax like Candices Crimson Lake series
Enjoyed this book although found some content I skipped over, a little to graphic for me, maybe because it was well written, and it draws you into the story.In saying that I couldn't wait to continue to read the next book. Definitely an author to watch.
I could not finish reading this book. Life's too short to read a book you don't enjoy
Candice Fox is the most brave and fascinating crime writer to come out of Australia in a generation. She goes to a dark side of relationships and holds you in her hand. She is responsible for producing the most intriguing characters I have ever encountered in crime fiction anywhere. Wow!
a gripping, powerful and breathtaking novel. plenty of darkness and danger. grabs from the first page and won't let go. easy to read with a good story line. impossible to predict what's next. an exciting read.
