The good, the bad, and the exhibitionist. Good coppers abound everywhere, but there are always the few rotten ones that turn up eventually. It's taken a long time for this one arrogant beast to get close to getting caught even though a lot of coppers and street thugs knew but couldn't prove enough. His arrogance led to a body on the beach under peculiar circumstances but McGuire was able to bring him down. Now if only they could catch the flasher!
Excellent procedural despite the fact that everything happened more than five years ago making proof that much more difficult. Thanks be that everything was fitted into a reasonable length book or I would never have gotten to sleep.
Jake Urry is positively amazing as the voice of McGuire and all the others!… (plus d'informations)

Good book with excellent narration.
I don't suppose I'd have read this book if I'd come across it in a book shop, the cover is not at all inspiring, however, I listened to this as an audiobook via Audible and that was a totally different experience. Jake Urry was the narrator and I loved his sultry drawl, which perfectly matched the characters.

The two authors have served many years in the police force, so when they write a police procedural about internal police corruption, it adds another dimension to a hidden vice, that we prefer to believe does not exist.

There are three aspects to DI Terry McGuire's inquiries - firstly a corruption case brought by some proven criminals who claimed that some of their offences had been planted on them by the police. Secondly, a dead body that had been dumped after spending five years in a freezer. And thirdly, a flasher who was stalking women in the local park.

As the investigation proceeds and evidence gradually reveals itself, I became more involved with Terry McGuire's character, though I didn't manage to keep all the villains in place in my brain. No matter, it was an excellent listen and I shall be searching out more from the narrator.… (plus d'informations)
