Justice Delayed by
Patricia Bradley is the first book in her new series. In this book we get an introduction to the
characters of Treece, Brad, David, and Maggie who I am certain we will see more
of in the books to come. We also have
the story of Will and Andi as they struggle to figure out who killed Andi’s
sister Stephanie eighteen years ago. Since
evidence has come up that says that Will’s cousin Jimmy, who will be executed
for that murder come Sunday, didn’t do it.
But if not Jimmy then who did kill Stephanie and why, and will Will and
Andi be able find the killer before it’s too late?
Both Will and Andi are flawed characters, and their flaws
shine through as they continue the investigation. Will has problems with his mother who was not
there for a good portion of his childhood.
Andi’s problems are more with herself.
She believes herself invulnerable to well… everything, and is way too
independent for her own good. In fact it
is because of this mindset that Andi continually puts her life in danger
without even a second thought as to what the repercussions would be to other
people.
Some things in Will’s and Andi’s stories are still
unresolved though so I hope we see more of them in the next books too.
There were a lot of characters/suspects/sources to keep
track of and I found myself a little confused at some points in the story. The mystery was interesting enough, but I
felt that a little too much information may have been given away in the
prologue. I would have liked to have
been kept guessing a little more. But the
author still threw in a few twists here and there to keep the readers on their
toes.
I received a copy of this book for free from the publisher. I was not required to give a positive review
and all views and opinions are my own.
