The Reckoning by Jane Casey

The Reckoning by Jane Casey

Maeve Kerrigan just got assigned a new supervisor.  She can’t find anything in the boxes scattered around her new flat.  And her love life is a shambles.  While her personal life isn’t the focus of the book, knowing her as a person helps see Maeve as a hard worker dedicated to her job and determined to make a good impression.  Maeve is a Detective Constable who just got assigned to the most unpopular case the force has seen in recent memory.  Someone is torturing convicted pedophiles to death.  While her fellow London police don’t feel too concerned she feels for the way these men died, especially since a few may have been innocent of any wrongdoing.

If you’re a fan of British police procedurals Jane Casey is a name to watch.
