The Detective by Ajay Chowdhury

Thank you @HarvillSecker #booktour @ajaychow for letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book. The Detective is a Crime thriller and has a great front cover that grabs your attention straight away. This is book 3 in the series, but you can read The Detective as a stand-alone book which is what I did. I found the Detective easy to get into and I found the characters Detective Kamil and AnJoli interesting and they seemed a great team. They bounced off each other really well. There are some great twists in the book and the story kept me entertained. The story is well-written and good plot. The Detective is a great crime thriller which is thrilling and enjoyable to read. Out to but now 5 stars. Blurb On the verge of a four-billion-dollar deal, a tech entrepreneur from Shoreditch is found dead in a construction site, which leads to the discovery of three skeletons over a hundred years old. But as fresh bodies turn up, can Detective Kamil - along with his friend Anjoli - prevent another murder?
