David J Gatward does it again... not only does this have twists, turns, and a story line that kills, it is a tale of grief and the lengths we go to to survive...
Seeing DI Haig get her own stories and be the main character we all know she was born to be is fantastic, and having her be in Harry Grimms old stomping grounds and meeting characters we have met before makes this new series feel comfortable and complete.
I look forward to the next one.
The narrator did a great job, and whilst it took a bit of getting used to after having Aubrey Parsons great version of Gordy for so long, Ruth Urquhart did her proud and by the end of the book felt like she had always been the voice of Gordy.

amazing spin-off

I really love this author but what on earth! The narration was shocking bad and really struggled to get into what is actually a great story. Fingers crossed for the next one😱

Gordy’s struggle to deal with life. This will be a long slow process and I will enjoy reading about her progress & development in the coming months & years.

I liked the new team and setting. But the emphasis on grief was tiresome and I found the flashbacks irritating
