Lost – Michael Robotham

If you read my previous review on Michael Robotham’s book “The Suspect” then you know that I love the way he conveys his storyline, develops his characters and adds twists and turns to his plots that keep you hooked.

In his previous book we followed the main character of Doctor Joseph O’Loughlin a psychologist who gets involved in a murder case. This time we follow the inspector from the previous novel Detective Inspector Vincent Ruiz who enlists the help of Joseph O’Loughlin to uncover the truth about an event which he cannot remember. We learn more about Vincent Ruiz than we did in the previous book and Robotham has given him a very interesting background and delves into World War Two.

The storyline is cleverly woven with many twists and turns which are not easy to spot. I found Robotham’s writing style to be even better than his previous book as his chapters were less disjointed than before and his knowledge of police work provided more depth to the story. The characters as ever were well developed although I would have liked to have learnt more about the character Joseph O’Loughlin and his family.

This is a series of books and I know I will want to read the rest of them if they are as good as Lost and Suspect. So watch this space! I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a good book, a crime thriller or just a well written piece of work.

What are your thoughts? 

Thank you for reading my review.
