When a woman is murdered in Blackdown village, newsreader Anna Andrews is reluctant to cover the case. Anna’s ex-husband, DCI Jack Harper, is suspicious of her involvement, until he becomes a suspect in his own murder investigation.

Ratings and reviews

The twists, the turns, the red herrings 😍 Very enjoyable read. Unfortunately took me a very long time to finish it because the world is falling apart.

Well, this is a real puzzle; who's a goodie and who's a baddie? I think I had every character in both camps at some point or another . . . Jack and Anna used to be married. The haven't seen each other for quite some time when a body is found on their home turf. Anna, a tv journalist and Jack, a Detective Inspector for the local force, are re-acquainted over the corpse. As the death count continues to rise, it's a race to see who can find out what's going on first . . . Entitling the chapters 'him' and 'her' was a real stroke of genius as, whenever I though I had worked out who the narrator was, something would happen to make me doubt myself. As the story plays out and the murder count rises, my little grey matter had a fine work out and ended up every bit as confused as when I began. With pertinent information dripping in every now and then, I congratulated myself on getting one or two small matters correct but, just when I thought I knew everything that was going on, one final revelation left me reeling! I really hadn't a clue; the author had me completely hoodwinked and I was both shocked and stunned to discover who the guilty party was. A clever and beguiling read from a talented author who knows how to keep her readers committed and dangling! Absolutely deserving of all five sparkling stars and a hearty recommendation.

His and Hers started off a little slow and it tends to jump around a bit, but once I got into it I really enjoyed it. I really liked the twists and turns and for once I didn't have a clue who the baddie was( very unusual for me!) Really enjoyable read, hence the 5 stars. I wanted it not to finish.
