Mr. Lucky (Trentbridge Crime Series Book 1) by Lee Wood – Review by Lucinda Morton-Phillips

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

Mr Lucky is told from various characters viewpoints and can be confusing at the beginning until you work out who fits where. The threads all come together with a bang and everything makes sense in the end.
It is a fast paced story featuring James Sheldon, a hard working police officer who has a great life with young family and wife he adores. When tragedy strikes he loses everything and finds himself lost in the bottle and homeless. A chance encounter brings salvation and the opportunity to help others, but also brings him into the firing line of Dave Rex.
Dave Rex starts as a small time criminal but transitions into a big player in the London drug supply chain. He has big plans that are thwarted by an accidental encounter with James, leading to retribution plans.
This was a very satisfying thriller and I look forward to reading more in the series.
