The White Crow


 
“The White Crow” by Michael Robotham
Published by Sphere UK
 
I didn’t enjoy this one as much as the 1st in the series.  I like the main character and the dynamics surrounding her relationship with her family, but I felt the storyline was slower this time around and not as smooth. If this series continues, I think the focus needs to be much more on the main character and the cases she’s involved in, and less involvement with her criminal family.  They should be a side story, not part of the main plotline.  I enjoyed it but I think it is much more mystery than thriller.  If you are looking for a mystery, I would recommend it.  But if you are looking for a good thriller, this isn’t it.  There just isn’t a lot of suspense throughout, just at the end.
 
Thank you to NetGalley and Sphere UK for the complimentary copy of this book.  As always, the opinions expressed within this review are completely my own.
 
Finished 7/4/25 – 3/5 stars
