Publisher's summary

The riveting follow-up to The Dark Lake, an acclaimed debut novel and international best seller.

Detective Sergeant Gemma Woodstock finds herself lost and alone in the city, brokenhearted by the decisions she's had to make. Her new workplace is a minefield, and the partner she has been assigned is uncommunicative and often hostile.

When a homeless man is murdered and Gemma is put on the case, she can't help feeling a connection with the victim and the lonely and isolated life he led despite being in the middle of a bustling city. Then a movie star is killed in bizarre circumstances on the set of a major film shoot, and Gemma and her partner, Detective Sergeant Nick Fleet, have to put aside their differences to unravel the mysteries surrounding the actor's life and death.

Who could commit such a brazen crime, and who stands to profit from it? Far too many people, she soon discovers - and none of them can be trusted. But it's when Gemma realises that she also can't trust the people closest to her that her world starts closing in....

Riveting suspense, incisive writing and a fascinating cast of characters make this an utterly addictive crime thriller and a stunning follow-up to The Dark Lake.

Into the Night is the second in Sarah Bailey’s DS Gemma Woodstock series. I had many of the same issues with this instalment as I did with the previous. Something about the way she describes the person who ends up being the murder but it immediately tips me off and ruins the suspense. Or maybe I’ve just watched enough Law & Order to be *that* good? Also, I found that aspects of the story often too neatly connected back to Gemma. She is the main character, but not the nexus of the universe. Since the primary murder victim was famous I did find the focus and study of modern celebrity very interesting and realistic. Other than that, much of the book is focused on Gemma’s dumpster fire of a personal life. It’s interesting and a bit refreshing to see a female character who has put her career before her child. Bailey delves into the feelings of guilt and detachment associated with this. There are also some very realistic and raw #metoo elements that for me elevated this book.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
