Song running through my mind: I defy you to read this book and not have this Drake song going through your head: The Couple on Cedar Close is book 2 in the Detective Dan Riley series - and oh my goodness what a book it is!! Absolutely Addictive!! Although I worked out early on who I didn't know why right til the very end. I wanted to read this in one go but being the silly season that was never going to happen. A fantastic story, original and an enjoyable read. LOUNGE/DINER 22' 10" x 11' 5" (6.96m x 3.49m) Spacious and open plan lounge/diner. Beautiful parquet flooring flowing from the hall. Sliding doors out to front garden. Windows to each side. Two radiators. All the characters repeatedly say the same thing twice for no apparent reason (other than to bulk up the word count). It got to the point where I would stop reading most sentences halfway through because the second half of the sentence was just a reiteration of the first half, said slightly differently.

This unique, extended, 1685sqft, 4/5 bedroom home in Warlingham offers fantastic space, it could have 4 reception rooms or you could use the extension as its very own annexe because it has a shower room and space for a kitchen. Oh, thank you, Dan, thank you. Have you heard anything about the little girl, about Matilda, his poor mother being murdered, being stabbed, killed in such a violent way, it's heartbreaking, horrible." I had thought I was getting a domestic Noir but it is really more of a police procederal/Detective story. That does not mean it isn't good.

I'd like to thank Bookouture, Anna-Lou Weatherley and NetGalley for approving this book in exchange for an honest review. I wanted a bit more focus on the suspense aspect personally, but this is a police procedural so it had a lot of that as well. This will work as a standalone novel if you don’t plan to read the first. Overall a solid mystery that I enjoyed! But he doesn't arrive, so she starts drinking a lot until she can't remember anything. When she wakes up, all the power is gone and she feels something wet on her dress. She goes to the basement and turn on the electricity. Then she realizes she has blood on her dress.

The perfect mash up of a police procedural and a psychological thriller! I had no idea that this was the second book in the DI Daniel Riley series until I got to the end, can absolutely be read as a standalone.... this book wasn’t necessarily full of crazy twists and turns, but I loved how it dove so deeply into the psychology of these characters.... A dark domestic drama with some pretty psychotic characters....
Cedar Close is an exclusive development of just seven contemporary three and four bedroom homes in a private cul-de-sac in the desirable village of Linton, around ten miles from the centre of Cambridge.
A bit predictable, not much of a mystery as described, but some interesting observations throughout make this a perfect new series for those who like light, police procedurals! If you read the conversations out loud without all the irrelevant fluff in between, they'd go something like this: If you fancy going for a bike ride The national cycle network route 21 can be joined at High Lane Warlingham. are some good views from the top of the house when the local air show is on at Biggin Hill The Red Arrows give a very dramatic flyby. The sunsets to west are panoramic and the night sky’s are good as the street lights go off at 24hrs.Watching the changing weather from the roof windows can be hypnotic . . Blanchman's Farm is a Local Nature Reserve a 5 minute walk away ideal for dog lovers this leads on to open countryside with abundant wild life from deer down to Roman snails escapees form along closed snail farm. When out on a walk and need some refreshments there’s always a welcome at the local golf club the bar is always open for food and drinks. The garden centre in Woldingham is a good walk and makes a good coffee. BEDROOM ONE 16' 10" x 11' 9" (5.14m x 3.60m) Exceptionally spacious main bedroom with dressing area offering an array of fitted wardrobe and drawer space. Carpeted floor. Windows to front & sides. Radiator. Eaves storage access.

The story alternates between present and past to a little girl who we don’t quite know who she is or how it all ties in with what is happening in present day. Things do become apparent quite early on though and the story has a cat and mouse feel to it which I really enjoyed. The last thing Laurie remembers was she was in the kitchen waiting for Robert, the dinner ruined, her heart destroyed. And when the light comes on, she is covered in blood! The Couple on Cedar Close is the second book in the detective Dan Riley series. Though part of a series, it can be read as a standalone. This book is the greatest I've read so far this year! I haven't read the first one in the series, but this worked very fine as a standalone, also. Though the police arrest Laurie, DI Riley seems to have doubts about what really happened. And soon he’ll discover that Robert’s death is only the beginning of a twisted mystery…Thank you to NetGalley, Bookouture and Anna-Lou Weatherly for an ARC of this novel in exchange for an honest review.

Detective Dan Riley is still coming to terms with the death of his girlfriend and unborn baby in a car accident two years ago, and totally immerses himself into his work investigating cases. I've just tried writing this review a couple of ways and each time had to press delete as I've realised there is a giant great big spoiler in what I'm saying, so clearly I can't mention anything about the plot other than it really interested me, and I was absorbed while reading it.The accommodation comprises a welcoming entrance hall with stairs rising to the first floor accommodation, ceramic tiled flooring with heating under opening to a large sitting room, again with ceramic tiled floor with heating under and a large under stairs storage cupboard. The kitchen / dining room is the heart of this lovely contemporary dwelling with French doors providing views and access to the rear garden and fitted with stylish, handleless soft closing cabinetry, ample fitted working surfaces with an inset one and a half sink unit with a mixer tap and bevelled drainer and a range of Bosch integral appliances including an induction hob, double oven, extractor, dishwasher and fridge-freezer, plus a wall-mounted, gas-fired central heating boiler. Just off is a handy utility room with matching cabinetry and space for the usual white goods. It was with great trepidation for Laurie Mills to meet her neighbours, at the annual summer barbecue for the residents of Cedar Close. For Laurie Mills, it’s her first time meeting the neighbours. But her husband, Robert said he would be right by her side to face the ordeal. But where was Robert? Her friend Monica was hosting it. Robert had said that Laurie needed to get out of the house and start interacting with people. Daniel Riley” The detective with the kind eyes,“ is convinced that there is more to this case then meets the eyes... after interviewing Laurie, Daniel can hardly believe she could hurt a fly much less a man twice her size.... oh what a wide web of deceit over this charming Close.... I enjoyed watching the unraveling of this psychotic killers perfect plans... I appreciated how thoughtful and compassionate Daniel was in his investigation.... I also loved how they called him “governor,” I’m not even sure why exactly, but it was super cool! I think because I could only think of it in the English accent, I don’t find governors of states very cool, LOL! But I digress....
