Summary

"He might be a nobody, but he was their nobody and their first case."

The new Kings Lake Central murder squad is about to spend its first morning on team-building exercises and reviewing cold cases when the call comes in that the body of one of the city's rough sleepers has been found in a shop doorway. It happens, someone says, he isn't the first to die on the streets and he won't be the last, but the story the new team begins to uncover is far from routine.

New characters appear and new relationships form as the pressure grows on Detective Chief Inspector Cara Freeman to deliver a result and show that Kings Lake's first specialist team is worth the money. Detective Sergeant Christopher Waters discovers links to a previous investigation, learns that there is more than one way to run a successful squad and finds flower arranging more interesting than he would ever have imagined.

Another great investigation

I love the way this series links together and develops over time - the back stories constantly developing. I am already panicking about getting to the end of the series and having to wait for the author to deliver the newest instalment.

Every bit as good as the rest of the series

And by series I mean Kings Lake and the D C Smith books. This is a superb series, well written and read - with a great cast of characters who I for one have got extremely fond of. Just looking forward to the next instalment.

Another Great Story

I’ve become a big fan of Peter Grainger. He’s so good at drawing characters, plus his insights into police procedural challenges are second to none. I found the narrator very good, albeit a touch slow. Easily resolved by speeding up a touch. Highly recommended,

This series is brilliant

I would recommend the series of DC Smith books and the Kingslake books to anyone that likes a very well crafted and very well narrated detective story.

Really enjoying this series

I am really enjoying the follow on to the DC Smith series Chris Waters is turning in to a Smith with his humour and I like this the story line is great and I love all the characters, my only slight disappointment is there wasn't much from Smith in this book and please Peter don't spoil the love story. I am looking forward to the next book and as for the narrator he is very good and for me its Smith narrating the book just wouldn't be the same with another narrator so please carry on Gildart

likeable, realistic characters.

this is the second Kings Lake book I've listened to, and I will listen to more. Peter Grainger has a great ear for dialogue, and the book is full of believable and likable characters. The narrator really nails it. great stuff.
