Review: PARTED BY DEATH by Caroline Fardig

 


The next homicide case brings Ellie Matthews back to the scene that started this whole series—the clown amusement park. With the body so badly decomposed, there was very little to collect for forensic evidence, so right away the case (and the story) was off to a slow start. With no evidence and no I.D. on the victim, the case goes cold.

 

Soon, what seems like either a murder-suicide or a double-homicide springs up. A total bloodbath full of forensic evidence. The time instead was spent investigating this case, which was interesting especially when Ellie gets tasked to go undercover at a swingers or “recoupling” party. Oh my!

 

I enjoyed Ellie’s sassy and sarcastic barbs throughout the whole stressful and humiliating investigation. It was so interesting how the two cases tied together.

 

A good read for sure!
