Charlie is tough. She teaches women's self-defence (which she took up after being raped in the army), rides a motorbike and is very independent.
The book starts with Charlie's friend Clare being attacked during karaoke night at a local nightclub by reigning champion Susie Hollins. Charlie deals with the attack and is offered a job as a bouncer by the clubs owner. Hours later Susie Hollins is found dead – the latest victim of a homicidal rapist that has been terrorising the local community. Charlie suspects a link between the nightclub and the homicidal rapist and she begins to investigate.
The book moves along at a cracking pace and Charlie is a believable tough heroine. The identity of the killer may be obvious in a plot that has been used many times before, but Charlie is interesting enough to carry you through.
Charlie is a very strong and independent woman.She is ex army special forces. she teaches self defence and she sometimes works as a bouncer. She is intelligent, likeable and believable. Although outwardly she appears very together, inside is a deep emotional vulnerability caused by serious violence and betrayal in her life. Charlie is the kind of woman who doesn't run from her fears, she embraces them and this leads to her becoming involved in dangerous situations.
If you are looking for a strong story with a heroine worthy of your admiration, lots of action and some cracking fight scenes, this is the one.
