Deadly intent By Sheryl Browne

 

Blurb from amazon
Tormented to the edge of sanity …
Just when DI Matthew Adams thinks he’s left the past behind him, it comes back to haunt him once again; this time in the form of the Conner family.
Like Matthew, the Conners have lost a child in tragic circumstances – and they’ve also found themselves in the hands of one of the most depraved criminals to walk the streets: ‘Dead-eyed’ Charlie Roberts, a drug addicted low-life with a penchant for extreme violence.
Matthew’s greatest affinity lies with Daniel Conner, the brooding father who still blames himself for his youngest child’s death. But when Daniel’s wife and daughter are tortured and tormented by Roberts, can Matthew prevent him from completely ruining his own life for an act of revenge particularly when, once upon a time, that’s exactly what Matthew would have done too?

Sheryl lives in Worcestershire with her husband, son and a variety of disabled dogs. According to readers of her thrillers, she also apparently makes an excellent psychopath.

So when I started this book I really did struggle as I think I was having a massive book block from all books I have read previously. So when I got a few chapters in and it started to get really interesting that's when I started to enjoy the book. I love Sheryl's way of writing the book and how she draws you into the book even when your having a book block she knows how to capture your mind and draws your in the story.

So this story is probably the worst story you could read and how hard it is to deal with something so tragic that has happened and even though your struggling with the grief yourself you will still do anything to keep your family safe.
So when Daniel has to do everything he can think of to keep Jo and Kayla save from an evil bloke who has kidnapped them for ransom. He knows this might be the ticket to get his family back together and to get the help they need to grief with their loss and to bring them closer. Charlie Roberts is the most sadistic bloke who you will ever meet and all he can see is the pound signs and the enjoyment of tormenting Daniel and causing him pain even charlies mate has had enough of charlie and tries to stop charlie when he thinks Daniel cant take anymore punishment. high on every kind of drug charlie has taken. he doesn't see hes doing anything wrong.
But with the help DI Matthew Andrews and his team they find them but with some more upset for Matthew as he has to help Daniel through something that he was hoping he didn't have to speak about before. With all the upset and Daniel telling  Jo all the suffering he endured by the hands of his father. Daniel and Jo have finally turned the corner and hopefully can  maybe get on with there lives and enjoy there family time with Kayla.
I would defiantly recommend this book to others and tell them they wouldn't be disappointed.
