When a young man is murdered in a fire at a holiday park, it seems that his complicated love-life might provide the clues to his killer. However, when DI Ruth Hunter and her CID team discover that there is also drug dealing at the park, the focus of their investigation switches. When their prime suspect disappears and with time running out, Ruth must track down the killer before it’s too late.

If you like chilling police procedurals, true-to-life characters, and psychological twists, then you’ll love Simon McCleave’s heart-pounding thrill ride.

I totally love the Ruth Hunter books and this one has been really different and interesting with Ruth ‘incapacitated’ 😀 Always well written with a good twist and contrary to other opinions I couldn’t imagine a different narrator doing justice to these characters!! I can’t wait until next month for the next……

Brilliant series

The usual format which is enjoyable l, decent twist at the end. But why oh why can’t they get a narrator who can pronounce Welsh words and place names accurately? Ad a Welsh speaker it really spoils the enjoyment!

Good but…

I have really enjoyed this series. The stories are gripping. The characters are realistic and easy to empathise with and the narration is first class. The only thing I found difficult and somewhat jarring is the author's frequent use of cut and paste of passages, even whole chapters. The oft repletion of phrases such as "weed strewn", "assure blue"and "skeletal branches" etc. becomes a bit tedious and spoils the enjoyment of the narrative somewhat. Other than this, I have found the series very desirable and am looking forward to the next installment.

Excellent series

From book one to this it leaves you on the edge of your seat wanting more. Can’t wait to start the next one. I’ve never read books before due to my attention span waning as I get further in, but Simon’s series has me hooked. “Fantastic”

Excellent

loved Deryn's lilting Welsh accent, pronouncing Welsh words correctly. Ruth's emergence from coma was very realistic.

Good story
