Summary

"He might be a nobody, but he was their nobody and their first case." 

The new Kings Lake Central murder squad is about to spend its first morning on team-building exercises and reviewing cold cases when the call comes in that the body of one of the city's rough sleepers has been found in a shop doorway. It happens, someone says, he isn't the first to die on the streets and he won't be the last, but the story the new team begins to uncover is far from routine.  

New characters appear and new relationships form as the pressure grows on Detective Chief Inspector Cara Freeman to deliver a result and show that Kings Lake's first specialist team is worth the money. Detective Sergeant Christopher Waters discovers links to a previous investigation, learns that there is more than one way to run a successful squad and finds flower arranging more interesting than he would ever have imagined.

Really enjoying this series

I am really enjoying the follow on to the DC Smith series Chris Waters is turning in to a Smith with his humour and I like this the story line is great and I love all the characters, my only slight disappointment is there wasn't much from Smith in this book and please Peter don't spoil the love story. I am looking forward to the next book and as for the narrator he is very good and for me its Smith narrating the book just wouldn't be the same with another narrator so please carry on Gildart

Every bit as good as the rest of the series

And by series I mean Kings Lake and the D C Smith books. This is a superb series, well written and read - with a great cast of characters who I for one have got extremely fond of. Just looking forward to the next instalment.

Brilliant - as usual

I thought when the original 8 DC books ended, it would be impossible to write another series with the same characters and make it as well constructed and gripping. I was wrong.

The “main” character is now Chris Waters, but the others we have come to know and love are all there, including the enigmatic DCI Cara Freeman. So, the stories are as good as ever, certainly as well written as ever.

But, as ever, it is Gildart Jackson’s better than brilliant narration that really brings the book to life. What I really love is his DC voice. I hope he continues to narrate Peter Grainger’s books because he adds an extra dimension that brings them to the level of superb.

Still missing Smith
Peter's books are exceedingly well written and a joy to listen to the narration is also excellent awaiting the next one
