Never Be Broken is Sarah Hilary's sixth instalment in her fantastic series featuring DI Marnie Rose. The series has won many prizes and awards and it just gets better and better as each new instalment is released and I am sure Never Be Broken will soon be winning awards too.
I really enjoyed Never Be Broken. It is a hard hitting and fast paced and begins with a prologue that is both intriguing and worrying and draws the reader in straight away and keeps their attention throughout.
I would recommend that this book is not read as a standalone as there are many threads within the story that relate to the previous title in the series. The storylines within the book are hard hitting and at times disturbing but the storyline that I found the most intriguing was that of DS Noah Jake and his mental health, a topic which is high priority at the moment and this is a great account of a professional man's struggle with his own mental health.
Thank you to Headline Books for inviting me to take part in the blog tour and for a copy of the book in return for an honest review.
