Summary

Good people do bad things

Bad people do good things

Sometimes it's hard to tell the difference…

Gina's body has floated down the River Esk. She was a farmer's wife. And it looks like an accident.

But Michael Brady has his doubts.

Brady's back in the police–and he needs to prove himself.

Is it murder? Or does Brady need it to be murder?

It's a year since his wife died. He's feeling lonely. And he's still trying to balance being a single dad and being a Detective Chief Inspector.

I really like this book.

I think that this was a great follow up to the 1st book, which was excellent. The characters are believable and likeable. The narration was brilliant.
I hope there are more eventually because I can't see my getting bored.

A good follow up to first book

A really good follow up to the first DCI Brady book. I enjoyed getting to know the characters more and the local references. A little less tension and jeopardy than the first book but still enjoyable.

The Characters- I loved all the main characters

Brilliant story. Kept me engaged throughout the whole narration. The story was excellent. The narrator is brilliant. I am grieving- Mark Richards died whilst writing his sixth book in this series. Also I am grieving as only two in this series are available on Audible.

More please.

An enjoyable 2nd in a series, but at the time of my review, no more are available on Audible, but I will keep my fingers crossed. I would certainly buy the next one.

Great new detective and his team.

After enjoying his first book I was hooked on DCI Brady and his team, I started listening to his second book straight away. This didn't disappoint, again a great story build and tense finale, along with the super narration by Luke Francis this author is a must listen. One slight, albeit annoying part of the listen for me was the pronunciation of one of the villages on the North York Moors, Grosmont. The S is silent, and is pronounced, Gromont. I know it sounds petty of me, but as a local it really grated. Hope the author has more cases for DCI Brady and please keep the same narrator.
