Reviews
Review this book!
"People think they want the truth, but the opposite is true. Honesty is mean and rough and ugly, while lying can be kinder, softer and more humane. It's not honesty that we want, but consideration and respect."
When She Was Good s the second book in the Cyrus Haven series by award-winning Australian author, Michael Robotham. Initially, it looks like retired Detective Superintendent Hamish Whitmore has committed suicide. But that's not what forensic psychologist, Cyrus Haven sees when he examines the scene. It quickly becomes clear that Hamish was murdered, and that it is related to the old (closed) case he couldn't let go. What disturbs Cyrus most is the tiny notation in a corner of Hamish's case whiteboard: Angelface, London, 2013.
Evie Cormac is back at Langford Hall, a secure children's home, impatiently waiting to be deemed old enough to be released. But not everyone agrees that she's ready. Meanwhile, she endures, hanging out for visits from Cyrus, and more importantly, their Labrador, Poppy. But Cyrus has been picking at the past, hoping to find out more about what Evie refuses to reveal; have his subtle enquiries tripped a wire that will put them all in danger?
For all those readers who wondered just how Evie ended up behind the wall in that house where the tortured corpse was found, this instalment of Cyrus Haven eventually explains all that, and a lot more! Evie doesn't trust anyone, and maybe Cyrus would do well to take a leaf out of her book. As he meticulously follows up leads, it's like he's pulled a tiger's tail. This novel is filled with edge of the seat, heart thumping action. And the final chapter, oh boy! Another brilliant read! This unbiased review is from an uncorrected proof copy provided by NetGalley and Hachette Australia.
