What readers are saying about the Detective Inspector Stratton series

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ – This was one of the most interesting crime mystery novels I have ever read. The travel through the novel had so many twists and turns. Just when I thought I had figured it out I was stunned by the next events.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ – The pacing kept me picking up the book every morning.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ – Through Aether I got a crash course in the beauty of Tasmania’s geography, and as well as little-known trivia of where the zipper on a wetsuit is placed. Can’t wait to see what faces DI Stratton and his crew next!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ – It was a true adventure. It’s one of those stories where you just want to read “one more page” and before you know it – hours have gone by. The story is set in Tasmania (my home Island) and the story pulls you right there, reading through I found myself teleported back. The mystery kept me riveted to the end. I cannot recommend enough!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ – There are way too many murder mystery novels out there, and the majority have predictable twists and plot lines, and the investigators are flat and one-sided. But not DI Stratton and his crew!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ – I read this book to fill a reading challenge prompt and I am so glad I did. Now I am eagerly awaiting the next book. I enjoyed it so much I have submitted my first ever rating
