My Thoughts…
I love a good series.
Helen Grace is a series yet each book can be read as a standalone. The characters (Helen Grace) appears in
each one but each story is its own crime to solve. Liar Liar is a thriller with plenty of
actions, lots of surprises, and a ton of action. Sounds perfect, it is!
DI Helen Grace is an amazing character. She is a complex woman, working in a man’s
world, and solving horrible crimes.
In this book she is trying to find a serial arsonist. There is a race against time and even when
the newspaper journalist starts writing stories about how she is failing to do
her job she never strays from the path.
She knows the route needed to find the perpetrator and does what needs
to be done to solve the crime.
I love the format that M.J. Arlidge uses. The short chapters, broke into different
characters and events, make the book easy to read. The story moves so quickly that it seemed I
had just started it and I was already done.
It was interesting to read the different points of view and different
happenings of the same timeframes.
The ending… oh the ending.
I am not sure what I am thinking more of. The person who was guilty of the arsons and
how they were caught or the hint at the next book in this series.
This is an amazing book.
I have recommended past Helen Grace books and cannot wait to share my
thoughts on this one to my fellow thriller/suspense readers.
