Still Midnight-- Book Review

Alex Morrow is a cop in Glasgow , Scotland. She isn't new to the police force- or to crime--but there is nothing familiar about the call she has just received.

On a still night in quiet suburb of the city, armed men have slipped from a van into a house, demanding a man who is not , and has never been , inside their home. In the confusion that ensues, one family member is shot and another kidnapped, the assailants demanding an impossible ransom. Later , the same van is discovered abandoned and burnt in the woods beside the highway. Is this all an amateur crime gone wrong or something more unexpected ?? ( Back of the book)

This is my first time reading this author and was new to her writing style.

This book has many point of Views and at times it was confusing .

Alex Morrow is partners with Bannerman. This story takes place over a couple days trying to solve this crime. On this day we meet her brother Danny , who doing illegal activities and he has an idea of who is good or bad.

There was some romance in this novel because this book had very little of it and who had the romance was surprising too.

The reader didn't even find out about Alex life until the middle of the novel and those were just breadcrumbs. I was shocked to find out about the news, but It did add to the character of Alex and her by the book and trying to succeed in all boys office. It was nice to meet her husband Brian and learn more of her home life.

I have no clue is this the middle or first of a Series about Alex Morrow. It does leave the door open for another book about her.

I did like the tension between Bannerman and Alex.
