About this listen
In the early hours of Christmas Eve, the wife of parliamentary candidate Tom Perry is brutally murdered in an apparent burglary gone wrong.
With the by-election campaign about to start in earnest, and the festive season in full swing, torrential rain brings with it flood warnings on the Somerset Levels.
Suspended on full pay and transferred to the cold case unit, Detective Inspector Nick Dixon is languishing on the sidelines as the investigation into Elizabeth Perry’s murder unravels and the floodwaters rise.
Returning to duty, Dixon is convinced that the answer lies hidden in Tom Perry’s political life, but why was Elizabeth the target and not her husband? The more Dixon uncovers, the further he is from finding the truth…
Dead Level is the fifth novel in Damien Boyd’s addictive DI Nick Dixon Crime Series.
©2016 Damien Boyd. (P)2023 Brilliance Publishing, Inc., all rights reserved.i thought Boyd was a solid character and the plot/procedural aspects were pretty good.
Not so impressed by the female characters - the sidekick constable who lives with Boyd and has to ask him basic general knowledge questions (he always knows the answer, she doesn't), and the inspector who seemingly lacks basic competence and training. You don't need dumb women to make a man look good!
But it was a satisfying read if you like a good detective story with emphasis on the investigation (interspersed by dog walking). Will definitely try more.
