I've enjoyed other books by the author so really wanted to read Three Little Girls. This is a sequel of sorts to Comatose in that it features the same cop, Karen Thorpe but the books can be read and enjoyed in isolation. I really enjoyed Three Little Girls, part mystery and part thriller. There are supernatural overtones as Karen uncovers bizarre evidence and Mr Binks tries to persuade her to use old world magic to find out who's been messing with her and why. The author makes this work even though it could have been a disaster. I kept turning the pages because I wanted to know if Karen would solve the cold cases and discover who killed her father. I'd recommend this book.
