really liked it
bookshelves: crime-fiction, prequel, uk-crime

I've read and enjoyed the political thrillers this author has written, and happily signed up for her newsletter, receiving this prequel as a thank you freebie. I do love UK based crime fiction, and the idea of having a new series to get stuck into appeals greatly.
In this story, the DS has to investigate the death of a retired colleague, his former boss really, and also a sounding board in recent months. The outcome - and the coroner's subsequent report - goes against everything he thought his boss stood for, but the evidence points to it being a suicide.
Like the DS, I'm not convinced, and expect to find this case crop up further in the series. For me, it's not a closed case, regardless of what the annoying Superintendent says, and he's definitely still on my suspect list. Looking forward to this series and the Zoe Finch one. .
