“Yes, again I picked the first one because I’ve read all three. This is less police procedural because it features a detective called Aidan Waits who tends to go off piste. It’s very dark, very gritty. The book starts with a girl going missing and he’s brought on to the case to try and find her. It brings him into a shady world of prostitution and organized crime. I absolutely love Aidan Waits. There’s definitely a theme here: another dark, disturbed man who you’d never want to go out with but you’d probably want to sleep with. I love that. And I love the way that Joseph Knox writes him in these stories. It’s a fantastic series.” Read more...
