Trick of the Dark by Val McDermid: Book Review

Trick of the Dark
Val McDermid

 

Gold Dagger winner Val McDermid is perhaps best known for her Wire in the Blood novels about criminal profiler Tony Hill, the character played by Robson Green in the highly successful television adaptations of her novels.

In her latest novel, Trick of the Dark, however, she has produced a stand-alone whodunit featuring a psychiatrist, police profiler and expert witness whose career has been left in tatters. When Charlie Flint provided evidence that led to the release a psychopath who went on to murder four women, she thought her professional working days were over. But an unexpected plea for help prompts Charlie to conduct her own investigation into the murder of a groom on his wedding day. Determined to redeem herself and prevent a miscarriage of justice, Charlie finds herself drawn deeper and deeper into the mystery, as it becomes clear that this isn’t the first time the killer has struck…

With fascinating characters and a plot that twists and turns its way towards a compelling conclusion, Trick of the Dark is an absorbing page-turner.
