First of all a shout out to the wonderful Meggy @ Chocolate'n'Waffleswho made me finally get to know Kay Hunter after I won this book in her giveaway a few months back. Thanks again for introducing me to what has become one of my new favorite series this year! <3 <3 <3

I became an instant fan of the main character of this series as soon as I got to know her in the first book back in April, and this feeling hasn't changed since. If anything, my love for Kay Hunter has only increased and picking up another book of this series is like putting on your favorite sweater, snuggling up in a comfortable spot and spending the day forgetting about your own problems. I hadn't expected any different by now, but book number five Call To Arms has exactly the same quality I have become used to. Strong, solid and engaging writing, excellent character development, an interesting plot... This detective thriller has it all. I really liked that we see a vulnerable side in various characters; this makes them only more human. The characters feel like old friends and you cannot help but feel and root for them as they try to figure out what really happened as they reopen a ten year old old case. It was interesting to see them all working together to rescue one of their own... The plot and plot twists are well executed as always, and I definitely didn't guess the final revelations! Call To Arms is another excellent addition to this series and I can't wait to find out what happens in the next book. I can highly recommend this series if you enjoy the genre!

Basically, you can't go wrong when you pick up one of the Detective Kay Hunter books. This series has been consistently strong so far and Call To Arms is no exception. Less fast-paced and violent than the previous book, Call To Arms instead focuses more on the main characters we have become to love, show a sensitive side and just how well they work together as a team. The cold case they investigate is another good one, with many twists, secrets and turns to keep things intriguing. Things are getting personal, and digging up the truth might hurt more than one person. Fascinated yet? You won't regret reading Call To Arms or the other books in the series if you can appreciate a good detective thriller.
