Laura Griffin – Her Deadly Secrets book review

Rating: 1.5 out of 5.

Private Investigator Kira Vance spends her days navigating the intricate labyrinth of Houston’s legal world, and she knows all of its shadowy players and dark secrets.

On a seemingly normal day, she’s delivering a report to her top client when suddenly everything goes sideways and the meeting ends in a bloodbath. Twenty-four hours later, the police have no suspects but one thing is clear: a killer has Kira in his sights.

Fiercely independent, Kira doesn’t expect—or want—help from anyone, least of all an unscrupulous lawyer and his elite security team. Instead, she launches her own investigation, hoping to uncover the answers that have eluded the police. But as Kira’s hunt for clues becomes more and more perilous, she realizes that she alone may hold the key to finding a vicious murderer. And she knows she must take help wherever she can find it if she wants to stay alive.


I think I’m one of the few people who was bored senseless by this book. It’s got high ratings on goodreads (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/42201391-her-deadly-secrets). There are two badass females solving crimes. They are hard core. They take shit from no-one. And yet – they were un-relatable in every sense.

The romance was more stilted than cheese and there was no chemistry. The entire book felt formulaic and thus lost me.
