DI Helen Grace returns in Pop Goes the Weasel, the electrifying new thriller from M. J. Arlidge. The body of a middle-aged man is discovered in Southampton's red-light district - horrifically mutilated, with his heart removed. Hours later - and barely cold - the heart arrives with his wife and children by courier. A pattern emerges when another male victim is found dead and eviscerated, his heart delivered soon afterwards. The media call it Jack the Ripper in reverse; revenge against the men who lead sordid double lives visiting prostitutes. For Grace, only one thing is certain: there's a vicious serial-killer at large who must be halted at all costs . . .

I really think this was such a good book and an intriguing story! Sometimes a little bit unrealistic though, that is why I gave it four stars instead of five. Like, how can Helen Grace still work as a copper after all she has done?
I really enjoy the theme of the murders and how they unfold but nothing more. The story of protagonist takes a turn I don't like at all. Also I continue to not know if I like Helen or not.
