MEDIA REVIEWS
Ooh I think this is best one in the series yet! Loved it. Steve Burt and his team are investigating what seems to be a murder case or two and then everything unravels. Lots of trust, secrecy and important people involved and I think this is Steve's biggest pressure yet. Explosive story line and does not disappoint. All the old favourites from book 1 and 2 make their mark too, making this a brilliant read. - Emma.
