Henley is still in therapy from the aftermath of THE JIGSAW MAN and the trauma --- both physical and mental --- caused by serial killer Peter Olivier. The PTSD is so bad that she almost doubts that he’s dead. But Henley receives a much-needed distraction when she and her colleagues are called to the Church of Annan the Prophet. The cleaning lady found the body of Pastor Caleb Silas Annan lying beneath the altar. He had been stabbed over 40 times.

There are two cases here. The first, and the one that the powers that be would much prefer be the more prominent case, is the murder of Caleb Annan. That’s partly because he appears to be a pillar of the community and more than a bit because no matter what it seems like he was hiding – and he most definitely was hiding a whole lot – it’s a relatively straightforward case.

The Binding Room is another gripping instalment in Nadine Matheson's dark and enthralling series featuring London Serial Crimes Unit D.I. Anjelica Henley. When another body is found, also tied down, Henley realises there’s someone out there torturing innocent people and leaving them for dead. But why?

saw Nadine signed by A.M. Heath Literary Agents with her debut crime fiction novel The Jigsaw Man released in 2021. The book was won by HQ (HarperCollins) in a six-publisher auction and has since been translated into 15 languages and optioned for TV.

I cannot wait to read what Matheson writes next, she is now on my auto buy list with two stellar reads so far. Isu rasisme disentuh dengan begitu 𝘳𝘢𝘸. Detektif seorang warga kulit hitam. Mangsa juga paderi berkulit hitam. Kes menjadi kompleks apabila ada politikus yang cuba menjuarai isu untuk meraih 𝘱𝘰𝘭𝘪𝘵𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘭 𝘮𝘪𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘨𝘦: kononnya dialah paling penentang penindasan. The deeper the investigation gets, it is apparent that there are no shortage of suspects. In fact, this preacher, as charismatic as he was, was not a beacon of faith and hope as he pertained to be. It becomes more than clear that his death is something that more than one person would’ve wanted. And, as if the investigation itself is not enough to warrant all of her time, Anjelica has other battles. Pressured by the media to find the killer of the pastor, as well as a moral and personal dilemma she is facing, she is literally burning the candle at both ends. While this can be read as a standalone, I think it was more meaningful knowing the characters ahead of time to feel connected to their personal life plot threads. I'm still thinking about this book days after finishing and know it will be in my top ten reads for 2022!

The Binding Room (An Inspector Henley Thriller, Book 2)

The story starts a few weeks after where the first book left off. It is clear that Anjelica and her team, particularly DC Ramouter, are still recovering after their last case but unfortunately for them a new serial killer is on the loose. The first novel in the Inspector Anjelica Henley series, THE JIGSAW MAN, was a superiour crime thriller and a serial killer novel that would make readers of Thomas Harris shiver. Now, her follow-up entitled THE BINDING ROOM is an even more complex story where two distinct and different themes are running through a murder mystery that turns into a potential serial murder case. And it’s somehow still alive – in spite of it’s ghastly appearance. But what’s it doing there? And how, by all that is or isn’t holy in that supposed house of worship, did it get into that room and why is it there in the first place?Including the hidden room, Home's layout resembles a heart. This may be a reference to the phrase 'Home is where the heart is'.

The Binding Room: from the best-selling author of The Jigsaw

An absolutely superb contemporary crime thriller . . . Nadine Matheson is a powerful voice in crime fiction' Reader review, ????? Sleeping in Mom's bed will cause Isaac to have a nightmare, showing the loading screen with no floor icons. In the dream, Isaac is sitting next to his mother as she watches TV. Isaac's distorted face then appears on the TV screen, as the noise of static begins to increase in volume. The Binding Room ini mungkin sedikit tebal (jadi lelah saya menghabiskannya 😅), tetapi ia novel yang mampat: aksi, drama. Watak utama yang berlumba dengan masa. Ada psikopat yang sedang bermaharajalela & semakin ramai korban menjadi mangsa. Another dead body is found and it seems there is a baby missing so the pressure is really on the team. This is the 2nd book in the Inspector Anjelica Henley series by Nadine Matheson. I had not read the previous book but it worked well as a stand alone anyway.A spellbinding game of cat and mouse . . . with chilling echoes of Thomas Harris's The Silence of the Lambs' Daily Mail
