This is the second novel featuring DI Miles Davies, but can easily be read as a standalone.Davies & his team are tasked with solving a grisly murder after a woman’s torso is discovered by bin men. Soon after, his close friend from the local basketball club goes missing & he is drawn to solving that too.A solid police procedural with humour & gore sprinkled in equal measure. Add in a hint of romance & a creepy villain you can really get behind, & all the ingredients are included for an enjoyable & entertaining crime thriller.
