The Kind Worth Saving is the second book in the Henry Kimball/Lily Kintner series and it does not disappoint. Peter Swanson crafted a clever cat and mouse which had me turning the pages wanting to know how things were going to end. Who would be the kind worth saving in this book?
Henry Kimball is hired by his former student, Joan, to follow her husband who is having an affair with his secretary. She “knows” he is having an affair but wants “proof”. Henry accepts the case but can’t help remembering his and Joan’s shared past, specifically the day that ended in tragedy. A day that haunts him, a day that he can never forget.
As Henry begins to investigate Joan’s husband, he begins to take a closer look at the past, and as he begins to put things together in his mind, he begins to become aware of connections, and realizes that things are not as they seem.
This book snuck up on me and I enjoyed reading about Henry and Lily once again. I found this book hard to put down, well written and well thought out book. This book is told through glimpses into the past and in the present and as more was revealed, I was even more invested in this clever book.
This is the second book in the series and I recommend reading the first book in the series, The Kind Worth Killing, first.
Gripping and well thought out!
