CJ Carver - Back With Vengeance

Jay MacCauley wakes up in a Russian hotel, covered in bruises, with absolutely no idea how she got there or why she is there.  Only snapshots appear in her memory of the previous 5 days, one of them devastating.  She gradually works out that she was looking for her uncle, who walked out without warning some days ago.  Jay has to piece the clues together, along with an ex-boyfriend and a mysterious MI5 agent, who has another agenda with her uncle, and an extra one with Jay.

My rating:8/10

Someone said, somewhere, that there are no decent British crime thrillers.  Hello, I've found one.  Full review on SHOTS, link posted here when it appears.

Update: Link to review is here.

Next:  A reread.  An abstract clue.  It's Christmas.
