About this listen

As riveting as Peter Robinson. As nerve-jangling as Peter James. Dead And Buried. Arson: Brutal acts of fire-starting have ravaged the Peak District, and now a new wave of moorland infernos sweeps across the national park. For DS Ben Cooper, the blazes are best left to the fire-fighters, even with the arsonists still at large.

Burglary: But when an intruder breaks into an abandoned pub, Cooper is on the case - and he swiftly unearths a pair of grim surprises. The first is evidence of a years-old double homicide. And the second is a corpse, newly dead....

Murder: What links the three deaths? Where are the missing bodies? Who is responsible - and how do the raging fires fit in? For Cooper and his rival DI Diane Fry, it's the most twisted investigation of their lives...and with an ingenious killer pulling the strings, it could also be their last. Drenched in atmosphere and danger, Stephen Booth's relentless new thriller builds to a shock finale that will catch even the most seasoned suspense readers off guard.

This is good but as per my title, it’s not my favourite. Seemed very drawn out and not as ‘tight’ as the other books in this series.

Good book but not my fave

This book was OK, I didn't really enjoy it as much as I'd hoped. It just didn't catch me the way I hoped

Ok, but not great

Started a bit slowly but then it was riveting. Very well read too. I’ll certainly be buying another one

My first Stephen Booth and I thought it was brilliant

Good storyline but too many loose ends that weren't tied up in this one. Also, Diane Fry becomes increasingly unbelievable. Hope this changes in the next one!

Too sad for me - though I could see it coming
