About this listen

Edinburgh has Rebus.
The Highlands have Logan.
Now Yorkshire has Grimm....

Welcome to Wensleydale, where the cheese is famous, the scenery beautiful, and the locals have murder on their minds....

Detective Chief Inspector Harry Grimm is forced to take leave from Bristol’s Major Investigations Team when his boss, tired of Harry chasing the ghost of his murderous father, sends him north on secondment.

Used to city life and high stress, Harry fears his life will now be spent handing out speeding tickets, finding lost sheep, and directing tourists. But when a local teenager runs away, Harry finds himself pulled into an investigation much worse than anyone could have ever expected.

The nicer the place, the darker the secrets. Wensleydale is beautiful, everyone is friendly and welcoming, and people just don’t get murdered...do they?

A classic fish-out-of-water crime mystery set in the stunning and evocative scenery of Wensleydale in North Yorkshire.

Grimm Up North is the terrific debut crime novel from award-winning author David J. Gatward. Perfect for fans of L. J. Ross, J. D. Kirk, Simon McCleave, Alex Smith, J. M. Dalgliesh, J. E. Mayhew, and J. R. Ellis.

Grimm is a terrific listen, made excellent by the narration (pls stick with Aubrey!). Congrats to the author on their debut. Can’t wait for more.

Very enjoyable story

Not sure why the author or at least the reader thought that every word spoken by the main character was yelled or screamed. All a bit silly really.

A lot of yelling

Im writing this review after listening to the first three in the series. The humour is on-point. The narration is excellent and the characters are very likeable. Im looking forward to the listening-journey ahead. Highly recommended if you like a good laugh along with your fill of DCI drama.

Fantastic-Ive found my next series to sink in to.

New author for me and although the storyline’s are quite simple….which is nice for a change ….. it kept me fixed until the end. I like the narrator as well!
