In Bloom by C. J. Skuse
Oct. 20th, 2018 10:51 pmThe Blurb On The Back:
Rhiannon Lewis should be happy.
Her cheating fiancé is in jail – framed for the depraved killing spree she committed.
Her ex lover has been chopped up and is buried in the garden.
But there’s one small problem. She’s pregnant.
And much as Rhiannon wants to continue working her way through her kill lists, a small voice inside is trying to make her stop.
Now she has to choose between motherhood or murder.
( The Review (Cut For Spoilers): )
The Verdict:
C J Skuse’s sequel to SWEET PEA is another exuberant and fun black comedy thriller packed with vulgarity and horror and a pregnancy that’s used to add further moral ambiguity and although the pacing slows at times and Rhiannon is helped by some convenient allies, there’s an interesting subplot involving a pregnant woman in an abusive relationship and the novel ends with a great set-up for the final book, which I will definitely be reading.
IN BLOOM was released in the United Kingdom on 9th August 2018. Thanks to the Amazon Vine Programme for the review copy of this book.
