Gripping, thrilling, tense, suspenseful, and full of twists, Her Lonely Soul kept me fully engaged and turning the pages at warp speed! I was so happy to see that S.A. Dunphy had another book in the riveting DI Tessa Burns series coming out! Woohoo! That means, Pavlov, the scene stealing, sweet yet feisty dog is back as well!
In Her Lonely Soul, Ellie O’Farrell, a young girl walked in a rural Irish police station to report a murder which has not happened yet. But later that night, a man is found dead in the way she described. How did she know?
Detective Tessa Burns along with DS Danny Murphy and Maggie Doolan are called to investigate. Readers of the first two books in this series will be familiar with Tessa and Maggie. Maggie is wheelchair bound but do not discount her or her abilities. She, along with her dog, Pavlov, has proven to be helpful, tough, and key players helping to solve cases. They are not the only ones who are back – the faceless men are back and as menacing as ever!
When Ellie has another dream about a murder, the team kicks into high gear to try and prevent a murder and get to the bottom of what is happening!
I enjoyed the mystery in this book. Along with the team, I did my best super sleuthing to try and figure out what was happening. As questions swirled through my mind, my fingers were turning the pages wanting more, more, more! I always love tension in books and was not disappointed while reading, Her Lonely Soul. In addition to tension, this book had suspense, mounting danger, action, dread, scary situations, and twists and turns to keep the action moving at a quick pace.
S.A. Dunphy always delivers! I can’t wait to read what he writes next.
While this book would work as a stand-alone, I do recommend reading the first two books in this series to get the backstories of the main characters.
Addictive, well thought out, exciting, riveting and thrilling!
