A Game of Lies (DC Morgan, #2)
by
by
4.5 stars
This is the second in the author’s crime series featuring Welsh detective Ffion Morgan, who we first meet in THE LAST PARTY.
Seven people sign up for a Survivor-type series…but unknown to the participants, the stakes are high as each contestant has a deep dark secret that is threatened to be revealed live on air. The motive to keep the secrets hidden is strong, and when one of the contestants is missing – are the secrets worth murder?
As with the previous book, what makes this one stand out is not only the Welsh setting, but the characters, especially Detective Ffione, and her neurotic flatulent rescue dog, Dave – I LOVE him, and he provides the necessary lightness to the story. Ffione’s personal life is a also a huge part of the story and I was completely invested.
Fast-paced and entertaining, this works especially well on audio. The ending left me looking forward to the next in the series!
