THE UNQUIET DEAD – THE NEW ANGEL & KINCADE MURDER MYSTERY

THE UNQUIET DEAD – THE NEW ANGEL & KINCADE MURDER MYSTERY

When a man is found dead in the New Forest, cold-bloodedly shot in the back as he crawled away from his killer, DI Max Angel and DS Catalina Kincade immediately know they’ve got something on their hands that might come back to bite them – they’re looking at the handiwork of a professional, a man for whom the taking of a human life is nothing more than a job.

As they dig deeper, they discover the victim was more than the out-of-work truck driver and part-time drug smuggler he appeared to be. He’s been sticking his nose into the business of a man whose ruthlessness is matched only by his greed and moral corruption, trying to get to the bottom of the tragic accident that left his life in ruins and a muck-raking journalist dead.

And if Angel hasn’t got enough to worry about, an innocent favour asked by the forensic pathologist, Isabel Durand, reawakens memories of his darkest days in the Afghan desert, the demons he thought he’d buried forever threatening to overwhelm him just as the investigation takes a very unexpected turn . . .

Lots of exciting scenarios, with several twists/turns & a great set of unique characters to keep track of. This could also make another great crime thriller movie, or better yet a mini TV series. A very easy rating of 5 stars.

Neurotransmitters firing on all cylinders with this one! The best mis-adventure of Evan Buckley story yet!!! Once I started reading, I could not stop; made myself late for work. Brilliant work by a brilliant author. Strap in and hold on tight, this adventure will twist and turn and take you on a thrill ride you won’t soon forget.

Another excellent story in the Evan Buckley series written by a master wordsmith. Excellent plot with lots of twists and turns that surprised me with each page turn. 20 years of family strife and revenge make this an interesting read. Don’t miss it. This is the type of story that will probably in some ways haunt you forever. I know, it will me.

Evan Buckley gets better with each book. As do the story lines. I’ve read these three in a row in only two days! Ready for the next one!

One of the best I’ve read in a while. Plenty to keep any reader totally engrossed. The twist at the end surprised the heck out of me.

Compelling. Fast-paced story that leaves unanswered questions. There is violence but no drag-you-down drama. Intriguing storyline with plenty of twists and gallows humor. Believable characters with distinct personalities. Realistic procedures, actions and reactions. Classic quote and entertaining dialogue.
