Lucky Break (Trentbridge Tales Book 2) by Lee Wood – Review by Kerry Carr

Lucky Break by Lee Wood
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the second book in the Trentbridge Tales series. Even though each book is a standalone once you read one you will definately want to read more. I love this author’s work, the writing and character building is great but what I really love is the fact it is set in areas I recognised and grew up in. There isn’t many references to the town of Market Drayton which is where I grew up, so when I read this in the story I was more in love than before.
This story is a dark gritty read which is full of secrets, lies and danger. The twists and turns kept me guessing all the way through and I couldn’t put it down.
When Peter discovers a genuine masterpiece in a junk shop he finally gets his big break, the big break he has been waiting his whole life for. Life should be good now right? As he continues he finds more and more profitable finds which has his competitors questioning how he is doing it.
When a murder occurs it falls to Detective James Sheldon to sort all the pieces of the puzzle and work out just what went wrong and who the murderer actually is. But with a suspect list growing bigger and bigger and the secrets and dark pasts being revealed by everyone he questions James will need more than Luck to solve this case.
This is an edge of your seat read that I loved and couldn’t put down. I was completely captivated by this story and the author writes in a way that flows well so it feel like a fast paced read.
