What’s been the best book that you’ve read so far this year?
Month two of my reading challenge is complete and I managed to read two books as Feb is a short month.

And
‘Dark House: TheDCI Harwin series (Book One) by Helen Phifer.
Month Three of my reading challenge is here …
The books I will be reading for March are:
The Couple Next Door by Shari Lapena.
How well do you know the couple next door? Or your husband? Or even–yourself? People are capable of almost anything. A domestic suspense debut about a young couple and their apparently friendly neighbors–a twisty, rollercoaster ride of lies, betrayal, and the secrets between husbands and wives. Anne and Marco Conti seem to have it all–a loving relationship, a wonderful home, and their beautiful baby, Cora. But one night when they are at a dinner party next door, a terrible crime is committed. Suspicion immediately focuses on the parents. But the truth is a much more complicated story. Inside the curtained house, an unsettling account of what actually happened unfolds. Detective Rasbach knows that the panicked couple is hiding something. Both Anne and Marco soon discover that the other is keeping secrets, secrets they’ve kept for years.
Dying breath; Lucy Harwin detective series (Book 2) by Helen Phifer.
Take a breath. Pray itโs not your last. Just a few months after a terrifying case that nearly took her life,Detective Lucy Harwinis back with her squad in the coastal town of Brooklyn Bay โ and this time, sheโs faced with a case more horrifying than anything sheโs encountered. Along with her partner, Detective Mattie Jackson, Lucy is investigating what appears to be a vicious but isolated murder; a woman found bludgeoned to death on a lonely patch of wasteland. But when a second victim is discovered strangled in an alleyway, then a young family shot in their own home, Lucy and the team must face the unthinkable reality – a killer is walking the streets of their town. While Lucy and the team try to find the link between these seemingly unconnected murders, they uncover a disturbing truth โ these murders are replicating those carried out by infamous serial killers. Lucy must get to the killer before he strikes again. But heโs got his sights on her, and is getting ever closerโฆ Can she save herself, before she becomes the final piece in his twisted game?
