Behind Blue Eyes (Stockholm Murders Book 1) by CS Duffy – Review by Erin Wolf

Behind Blue Eyes by C.S. Duffy
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I give Behind Blue Eyes (Stockholm Murders Book 1) by CS Duffy, 4 stars.

London girl Ellie has met the man of her dreams. Johan is a Swedish god who seems to think she is his everything. So she gives up her life in London to move to Sweden with him. In a strange country, where she does not speak the language is quite a culture shock for her. But she has Johan. Or does she? His past seems much more shadowed than she thought. Plus his friends seem to be quite important to him. Not to mention the dead body Ellie finds. When it looks like Johan may be guilty, the investigative side of Ellie kicks in and she is determined to find the truth. Is he the man she can love or is she in a horrible nightmare?

This a great whodunit with the main character being someone in a strange land with strange (to her) people. Not to mention the romance side of things. You really feel for Ellie the entire time. And the author makes us question everything about everyone until the end. I love that in this type of book. The story is riveting and reminds you of an Agatha Christie novel. Ellie steps in as detective, questioning everyone, literally and figuratively. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and cannot wait to read more in this series.

If you enjoy a good murder mystery with romance and suspense, I highly recommend this book.
