If you play with fire, you're going to get burned... It should be an easy solve: a murder in broad daylight with two eyewitnesses. But the victim is the son of a notorious local crime family who has a habit of hitting on other men's wives; the witnesses are Serbian nationals who speak limited English. For DCI Warren Jones, this is his most challenging case yet. As the suspects pile up, the victim's family work to protect their son's memory by destroying any evidence that could betray his criminal past - or might have led to his killer. Somehow Warren must uncover the truth about the murder - but there are secrets at the heart of the case more dangerous than anyone could have imagined, and the fallout could tear Warren's team apart... Readers LOVE the DCI Warren Jones series: 'Gitsham's DCI Warren Jones series is a winner.' Goodreads reviewer 'The cast of characters is amazing.' Goodreads reviewer 'I do love this series... Proper police procedurals... They twist and turn to get to the end.' Goodreads reviewer 'I'm a big fan of this author.'

I received a free copy of this novel from the myvlf.com website.

This was a very good read; a detailed police procedural with a good pace and a few twists and turns. I haven't read any of the earlier novels in the series but, although events in them were frequently referred to, it was fine to pick up here.

There was one detail at the beginning, which I stored up in my mind waiting for some one else to notice it

SPOILER

(the fact that the victim was supposedly having a massage in his socks and shoes).

The ending explained this thankfully, but unless I missed it, I don't think it was explicitly referenced, which disappointed me - I had been feeling so clever! ( )
