I felt Blood Money took a different turn to the previous stories in this series. Marilyn, Georgie’s overpowering mother, reveals a huge family secret to Georgie which sees the two of them, and Georgie’s boyfriend James, travel to visit Aunt Serena in London, and this is where the rest of the story takes place.I don’t want to reveal any details about the secret but when they set out to try and trace a missing person the situation that person has found themselves in becomes more and more problematic and sinister. Help arrives in the form of Eric and Callie and then later when Julie and Sean turn up and although I breathed a sigh of relief that the gang were back together again they find life difficult because they are working in an unfamiliar country. I should add that I found their desperation to find a decent cup of coffee highly entertaining.
Before the team know it they are mixed up with the most unpleasant Des and involved in the shady world of the Triad. Although the previous storylines have had at the centre of them Georgie’s documentary making career this takes a backseat in this tale and there is considerably more violence and bloodshed than there has been in the earlier books of this series. I loved the darker edge though, and also delighted in seeing a character from another series I have enjoyed make an appearance.
Georgie is the same infuriating and impulsive person she has always been and how the tolerant James puts up with her I will never know. But this story also ends with Georgie in trouble with the law which adds a further complication into the mix. I always highly recommend Lindley’s writing. It’s descriptive and flowing, the characters consistent and well rounded, though don’t just take my word for it, try it for yourselves.

Blood Money The Georgie Connelly Stories Book 5 edition by E L Lindley Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
James and Georgie are planning a holiday, although James’ suggestion of camping isn’t quite what Georgie has in mind. Both of them realise they need some quality time together after the traumas of the last year. But fate, in the form of Marilyn, intervenes with some shocking news for Georgie. She has a half-brother, Simon, the result of her father’s affair with his secretary, which broke up her parents’ marriage. And, it seems everyone but Georgie knew about it. Not content with dropping that bolt from the blue, it appears Simon is missing and Marilyn, in her usual high-handed manner, has promised Serena they’ll go to London and help with the search.
Georgie and James find themselves on a plane to London the next day, along with Marilyn. Sure it will only take a couple of days to sort things out, they have no idea of the impending danger. Meanwhile Julie has been searching for information on Simon Connelly and gives them their first lead. Georgie is struggling with her feelings and having a hard time reconciling the father she thought she knew and loved with the man who’d had a second child and chose to keep him a secret from her.
Georgie and James soon discover there is a lot more to Simon’s disappearance than was apparent initially, and they are soon embroiled in an investigation which leads them into very risky territory involving organised crime and kidnapping. The lighthearted and fun aspect of the story is offset with serious subjects, as E L Lindley does so well, delving into the mind-set of an addictive personality, revealing the terrible consequences, not only to person concerned but also to their friends and relatives, and the lengths to which someone is prepared to go to feed their addiction.
The sinister and far-reaching world of organised crime is also explored, and the deeper the investigation the more corruption is uncovered and the more imminent the danger. Georgie is faced with a situation which leaves her on the wrong side of the law.
James and Georgie are wonderful characters with such contrasting personalities, Georgie impulsive as only she can be, James resigned to the unpredictability of life with Georgie. Not to mention Marilyn, who is as imperious, manipulative and as capable of rubbing Georgie up the wrong way as ever. Regardless of all that, the chemistry between James and Georgie is evident despite the clash of personalities. Humour, lots of action and the dynamics between the individuals make this a joy to read. I love the book cover and the inclusion of Jack Lockwood into the story is a great touch.
Another great addition to the series and I’m very glad some of the previous issues have been resolved, and with the teasers towards the end of the story I can’t wait to see what happens next!
