At First Glance by Paul Gitsham

Hello my friends, 

Today I am reviewing “At First Glance” by Paul Gitsham the 7th instalment in the DCI Warren series. I really enjoyed this novella, and will probably go back and read book one in the series.

When a small-time drug dealer is found with his throat cut, a trail of blood leading to the weapon and killer, DCI Warren Jones looks forward to a fast resolution. But what seemed like an open-and-shut case quickly becomes a twisted trap: an innocent man set up to take the fall.

Everybody knew the victim, but witnesses are sparse – no one wants to get involved in a turf war. The one detail Warren has to go on is a mystery accomplice seen with the victim before his death: a man called Madman. A man who doesn’t seem to exist…

This is the first book that I have read by this author, and I would probably read another.  I found myself engrossed in the story and reading it in one sitting.

The mystery is interesting and well plotted, full of twists and turns as well as a few surprises.  I never did guess who it was and it was quite a surprise who the killer was.

I recommend this series to all my british crime mystery loving friends.

I requested and received an Advance Reader Copy of this book from HQ Digital and NetGalley. All thoughts and opinions are my OWN.
