Where Demons Hide is a beautifully written crime novel that weaves together several compelling strands. I was pulled into the story straightaway by the atmospheric first chapter, with its vivid descriptions and supernatural undertones. I'm new to Douglas Skelton's books, and Where Demons Hide is the fourth book in the Rebecca Connolly series.
Fortunately, the author has included plenty of backstory, so it didn't long for me to feel as though I knew the main characters very well. I loved how the book focuses not just on the crime investigations, but on the characters' personal lives, creating multiple layers. I was rooting for Rebecca as I found myself immersed in the emotional rollercoaster of her day-to-day life.
The dark humour, intelligent plot and fast pace kept me intrigued all the way through. A gritty pageturner that can easily be read as a standalone - though by the end, I felt compelled to buy the whole series.
Something scared Nuala Flaherty to death. When her body is found in the centre of a pentagram on a lonely moor, Rebecca is determined to find out what. Was she killed by supernatural means, or is there a more down-to-earth explanation?
