Summary
 If you like Peter James, Mark Billingham and James Patterson, you won't be able to put down the compelling Inspector Hardy series.

When Inspector James Hardy learns the body of a young woman discovered in the River Thames is that of a friend, his life goes into a tail-spin. The victim’s flatmate is on the run for her life. She could be the key to catching the killer. In a race against time, Hardy must track her down before the killer does. As the truth behind the investigation unfolds, Hardy’s own family come under threat. With two young daughters to protect and an investigation that twists and turns, Hardy finds himself pushed to the limit. With his every move scrutinised by the press, a witness on the run, and a killer growing in confidence, how will Hardy handle the pressure and solve the investigation?©2019 Jay Gill (P)2022 W. F.

So many different things happening in one book but easy to follow without being convoluted. Character were consistent. So happy to have found this author as many of my favourites seem to have gone off on a tangent.

If you think you’ll just listen to a chapter before bed… you’ll fight sleep to see what’s coming next

I was pleasantly surprised by this book. When starting a new series it’s always easy to start comparing it to other detective series - and there are some good ones but I found I was really interested in the main character and his life. Looking forward to the next book.

Very promising series
