Summary

Hard live. Hard Lessons. It's murder on the streets. When a prostitute's body is found lifeless, mutilated and brutally raped, DCI Annie Carr has never seen anything like it and never wants to again. Kate Burrows, retired DCI now consultant, has plenty of experience when it comes to murder - after all she caught the Grantley Ripper and broke the biggest pedophile ring in the South East. She is determined to help put the killer behind bars.

But whoever it is won't be easily caught. And when another girl's body is found, even more horrifically disfigured than the last, it's clear the killer is just warming up... In a ruthless world where everyone's out for themselves, Annie and Kate must dig deep if they hope to catch a callous serial killer who knows no limits and makes no mistakes. For some, prostitution is seriously big business. But how many people will pay the ultimate price? Utterly compelling, Hard Girls is a gripping and disturbing thriller that will have you hooked until the very last page.

Not recommended

I was very disappointed by this book. It had no story and was extremely repetitive and predictable. Definately the worst book I have heard from Martina Cole. The narration by Annie Aldington was great as always, but for once that didn't help.

I found it too long .....

I like Martina Cole books, but this one was so drawn out, I began to get bored with it, I was glad I stuck with it but I guessed who the culprit was long before the end of the book ...The use of bad language was frequent & often uneccessary (I am no prude, but this was over the top). This however, has not put me off buying more Martina Cole.....

Overall, I really enjoyed this book, but I solved it almost from the start, as I did with Broken.

So well read

This is one of the best books I’ve had. Really good story and so we’ll read. Made you laugh so much and made you sad too at the sorry lives of the girls. Loved it, really my sort of story.

Such a disappointment

I absolutely loved the first 2 books in this series. I’m so disappointed with this one. Lots of filler, culprit easy to work out from the start & I think what made the 1st 2 books so interesting was the insight into the killers life. It added another dimension whereas this one felt slow & uninteresting. Also 2 major lovable characters killed off between books with no explanation! Won’t be downloading the next one.
