Books like Looking for Trouble

I had high hopes for this after reading others' reviews and realising she write Scott & Bailey among other things-can't go wrong !! However........this was an "old" book released onto the Kindle and it's full of mistakes. So much so I wanted to pack it in in loads of instances as it wore me down. This is expected in freebies (although still unacceptable as far as I'm concerned) but not in paid books so I'm less than impressed. I had plans to read this whole series but won't now. I have bought another by her which is more recent so I am hoping that wasn't a terrible decision and is more polished.There were repeated apostrophe mistakes throughout, especially talking about the Dobsons' house and using Dobson's and missing it off Ladies'. It was wrong every single time !! Instead of wracked it is .racked ?? There were missing speechmarks in places and almost every time JB was written at the end of a sentence the fullstop was missing. Maybe a formatting "thing" but it should have been checked. Then at one point JB was changed to J.B. It was all a bit too slapdash. The odd word was dropped from sentences such as the/a and there was a lack of paragraph breaks making it a little baffling at times.Live was used when it should've been five and pouring instead of poring and then 1 and not I.I did not like Sal very much at all, either, nor the way she spoke about Digger. A few of her chapter endings were dum,dum, dum moments but that got a little tiresome after a while. She really wasn't a terrific detective, either, I thought. Her daughter was always whining or bleating and was in no way very likeable and Sal was always wanting to sleep or she had smelly armpits. Too much repetition.There were a few very funny remarks in it but I really didn't like it. It's a terrible introduction to this author in this state.
