A Deadly Sin

Ooooh a new thriller from Tracie Podger, I so needed to read this! I am a fan of this author so really couldn't wait to read it. Well what can I say….Brilliant, fantastically written, 5+ thrilling stars! It got those nervous, on the edge butterflies going many times!Mich Curtis (whom I love) is a detective and is investigating a murder, a sick, brutal murder. This escalates and soon he's on the hunt for a serial killer and it's a race against time to catch him. Of course there are a few twists and turns on the way!I started this and it was one of those you could not put down, my phone came everywhere with me and I mean everywhere! I even had a sneaky half hour in the supermarket car park. It consumed me the whole day. The times I wasn't reading it, I was thinking about it. I finally got peace, so I sat and devoured the rest of the book. I'll be one clicking the next book as soon as physically possible! I highly recommend you one click this if you've not already!A Book Lover's Emporium.

An absolutely exceptional suspense-filled story with drama and intrigue expertly woven through each page. A gripping, whirling dervish of a storyline with mystery and secrets flying at you left, right and centre.Mich is ex FBI, now policing a small, quiet town. A disappearance leads to one murder but it is by no means an isolated incident. As events unfold, Mich's past will come back to haunt him and threaten his own future and those he holds dear.This book had me hooked from the start. It had my heart racing, my fingers turning white from gripping my kindle so tightly and at times I even had to just set aside to get my breath back and calm my mind. It was never left for long though as I just had to know what was coming next.I love Tracie's writing and this story just rocked beyond words. One question.....when is the next one out???

Only the fact of my favourite author made me chose this book, and I was totally hooked on the story! What an incredible story! I have experienced so many emotions, could not put book down. Now look forward to reading more of this author, in a new to me, genre. Thriller!

I enjoyed the plot and all the twists along the way. I liked that when most books would finish, ie when the murderer was caught, in this book, that wasn't the case Very frustrated (in a good way) when I got to the end and realised that there was a lot more of the story to come. Looking forward to reading more.

An amazing story. I was gripped right from the start. I couldn't' imagine where it was eventually going to end up but I can't wait to see. I want to see more of Mich. I want to find out if he gets close to the Cult. Tracie, you are a gifted writer. I have read the Fallen Angel series and now I can't wait to read what came before this story and what will come after it. Thank you.

Wow! This has been on my kindle for years, I'm gutted I waited until now to read it. The constant twists and turns and second guessing, had me gripped throughout.

A brilliant book. Couldn't put it down. Took two days to read. This author has surpassed all expectations. I have read Tracie Podger's previous books. Can't wait for new release. Well done. Would recommend her books for over 18s

Detective Mich Curtis is involved in a gruesome case of murders with a group of teenagers being targeted. No clue of the one true target.His casual relationship with the medical examiner 'Eddie' means more to him (and her!) if they are both honest. Having one another to 'forget' with during the horrific sins murders would see them both struggle in commitment.A really good plot full of twists and turns. The bad guy in this story actually gave me the serious creeps. I think it's why I had to step back from this book a few times. But returning to it was a priority.Excerpt:People thought they were manipulating me but they weren't. I allowed them to believe that for one reason only. I was achieving my goal, knowing I had the backing of something powerful. When this was all over, I had protection.The lengths that Mich goes to, including potentially losing his job and potentially his own freedom for the sake of something bigger than anyone expected is just the very beginning of a story that I can't wait to hear more about. The ending left me teetering on an already explosive high.Final excerpt:I needed to play the game he was. I needed to connect with him on a base level. To do that I was about to totally incriminate myself on record. I was about to throw my career out the window and possibly put myself in jail.

I have read a few works by this author and I swear she does this on purpose. First she grabs you and pulls you in and then she twist it up so badly that she has you grabbing and fumbling and nothing works out the way it's supposed to it just flies off in the direction you never expected and you end up saying WTH!! Whew!! I feel so much better. Mich's life wasn't perfect I mean it was alright but he was ready to make some changes. Eddie gave and took exactly what she wanted out of their relationship and yeah she was the one in control. This is one of those reads where everything you think you know is a lie. Everyone you think you can trust can't be trusted. By the end of the book, as the story unfolds, you find yourself reeling from the results and still needing answers. Mitch has to change his strategy as each piece is revealed yet still left with so many questions, especially when his past that no one knows about is brought to light.It's an amazing read that will haunt you as this author is good for. She takes real life and spins it so well you can't stop no matter how much part of you wants to. What starts as a murder investigation leads to so much more. The manipulation and game play is nothing short of masterful as this author feeds you a story filled with everything from murder to more than you can imagine. Loved it from start to finish.

Holly meat balls...wow,I mean what the hell did I just read???Amazing,captivating and trully twisted story.Mich and Thomas,cat and mouse...who would have the upper hand? I read this story in one sitting..and holly hell I did not excepted how it will end. The horror of twisted mind and disgusting murders,chasing for the truth, trying to find Eddie and let's not forget Mitch's past which finally engages him and he must exposing all of it.I really thought that this is the story with a cliff at the end ( stupid me for reading others reviews before reading the book) but IT IS NOT!!! My mind just wonders in every possible directions of what could happend now after Mitch and Gabriel joins together!

The story Deadly Sin totally blew me away. I loved the mystery and the intrigue of the story. It was described in vivid detail, so you could picture the scenes. I loved how Mich was always in cop mode. He is good at his job and loves what he does. He was able to get into a killer's mindset and try to predict his next move. I enjoyed trying to piece together the clues to solve the case. The ending was totally unexpected and left me in awe. I can't wait for the next book to continue this amazing story.
