From Goodreads
It is an ordinary Yorkshire morning, cold and miserable.
The streets are not yet busy. Police cars hurriedly pull up in the centre of town, but none of their lights are flashing and the sirens are silent.
A body has been found, elaborately and painstakingly positioned to send a message. But what message? And to who?
It’s DI Harry Virdee’s job to find out. But Harry doesn’t know that the killer is watching him, that the killer is coming for him.
Because this is personal.
My thoughts
I first came across this when I watched Virdee the TV series and then found out that it was based on a book. I had to read the book even though I had seen and enjoyed the TV series. Having seen the series didn't detract away from the book, as it was only loosely based on it.
I enjoyed this story and look forward to reading more of the books in this series. I felt that the author portrayed the lives and the interactions between the characters of the criminals, the victims and the police well. It shows that many religions and races of people have prejudices against each other.
I doubt reading the first two in the series after having read the third in the series will be spoiled at all. Keep your eyes out for reviews of them in the future once I have read them.
