ASK NO QUESTIONS by CLAIRE ALLAN
My Rating: ★★★★
Twenty-five years ago, on Halloween night, eight-year-old Kelly Doherty went missing while out trick or treating with friends.
Her body was found three days later, floating face down, on the banks of the Creggan Reservoir by two of her young classmates.
It was a crime that rocked Derry to the core. Journalist Ingrid Devlin is investigating – but someone doesn’t want her to know the truth. As she digs further, Ingrid starts to realise that the Doherty family are not as they seem. But will she expose what really happened that night before it’s too late?
I love books with plots that include investigating some cold case. So, this book was perfect for me and I did enjoy reading it,
The writing and the narration were so good that I was engaged throughout. All the characters were all so mysterious that I had a hard time guessing who was the killer.
I think Ingrid’s investigation was spot on. She was definitely asking the right questions and following the right leads which did result in endangering her life. Though I did feel, it was foolish of her of not informing the police in spite of the repeated acts of vandalism.
There were surprises and twists throughout the plot. But I was more interested in reading how the lives of the different characters involved had changed after Kelly’s death. All of these events tied up to an exciting ending, which was quite dramatic but also tension-filled.
Thank You NetGalley and Avon Books UK for this ARC!
