The Controller by Linda ColesMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
My thanks to Linda Cole for a Kindle pdf of The Controller - a novella, easy to read in one sitting.
Pete uses a drone to spy on owners walking their dogs. Establish where they live and leave it to his cohorts to nap the dog and hold for ransom. Pam is a delightful lady, ready for retirement, when her dog is stolen. Like any pet owner she is totally bereft until she receives the 'phone call demanding money for her dogs safe return. Pam pays up. But the crime takes a much nastier turn when the gang see a way to make more money...
The Controller introduces Detective Sergeant Amanda Lacey and her sidekick DC Jack Rutherford. He has spent many years as a Detective Constable and is happy with his lot. These are two very likeable coppers and get stuck into this dastardly crime.
Well written, likeable characters (well, the good ones!) and a very satisfying read.
I loved it.
