Deadly Autumn Harvest by Tony Mott
Thank you @sh_ewa and @tonymott for letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book.
My Review
Deadly Autumn Harvest is a tremendous read that I thoroughly enjoyed and read in one day. This is the first book I have read by Tony Mott and it is an excellent read. I was hooked from the start by the bizarre murders that were happening in Brasov. I liked the character Gigi who is a forensic pathologist who works with the police to find out who doing these bizarre murders. I felt Gigi is a strong woman that needs no man to define her. I did think I knew who the murderer was, and I was correct which is always good. Deadly Autumn Harvest is a translation of fiction that I enjoyed reading and I will be reading more translated fiction in the future it is open my eyes to different authors around the world. There is a great amount of suspense and drama running through the book that keeps you hooked. Tony Mott has a great imagination, and I will be reading more from her. Deadly Autumn is a great crime thriller which is totally different to other crime books which is why i enjoyed it. I strongly recommend it. Out now to buy 5 stars.
Blurb
A series of bizarre murders rocks the beautiful Carpathian town of Braşov. At first there’s
nothing obvious that links what look like random killings.
With the police still smarting from the scandal of having failed to act in a previous case of a
serial kidnapper and killer, they bring in forensic pathologist Gigi Alexa to figure out if several
murderers are at work – or if they have another serial killer on their hands.
Ambitious, tough, and not one to suffer fools gladly, Gigi fights to be taken seriously in a society
that maintains old-fashioned attitudes to the roles of women.
She and the police team struggle to establish a pattern, especially when resources are diverted
to investigating a possible terrorist plot. With the clock ticking, Gigi stumbles across what looks
to be a far-fetched theory – just as she realises that she could be on the murderer’s to-kill list.
