Here Lie the Dead: A Scottish Crime Thriller (DCI Logan Crime Thrillers Book 15)

Product Information

DC Tyler Neish is back in trouble as always along with his very pregnant co-worker who also happens to be his wife. When the police arrive the bride is going ballistic as under her perception a dead body and the police are deliberately ruining her big day. As they start to unpick the young woman's life, the secrets and lies they expose soon threaten to tear the small, rural community apart. The author doesn't seem to know what to do with Logan and Shona now they're a couple ( hence the ex to try and bring in angst/jealousy last time) and Logan himself is a slightly watered down version.

I inevitably put off reading it for a while and then end up kicking myself for waiting so long because of course it’s good - they just never seem to let me down.Already the cold-nipped maples and hazels were turning a deep scarlet and gold, with the paler yellow of the birch seeming to glow out of the damp gloom.

With eleven books already available, I wasn’t going to be able to catch up on them all in print, so, as I often do in such cases, I turned to the audiobook editions instead, and have been catching up with Sebastian’s adventures that way, and enjoying them hugely. Anyone who has read Charles Dickens is aware of what life was like in England for many children, although he was born only one year before this story takes place. As a crime fiction fan, I’m used to reading NSFW language, including obscenities, and sometimes vulgar sexual references.

The daughter of a career Air Force officer and university professor, Proctor loves to travel and has spent much of her life abroad. All those missing, exploited, murdered street kids, it’s enough to rip my heart (and I suspect most readers’ hearts) into pieces.

Here Lie the Dead is the 15th book in the multi-million selling DCI Jack Logan series from Scottish crime author, JD Kirk. But the most poignant moment in this book takes place between Sebastian and his father, the Earl of Hendon. Every time I hear a new DCI Jack Logan book is coming out my first thought is YAY then I worry… will they still be good. IPSO is an independent body which deals with complaints from the public about the editorial content of newspapers and magazines.Speaking of things not making sense, the perpetrator didn't make sense to me either - they didn't really strike me as the type to do the things that they did and I feel like we didn't get as much background information on them compared to other perpetrators within this series.

This time evil sets its eyes on the most vulnerable members of society and, as first time parents, both Sebastian and Hero feel the losses deeply. Dabei muss ich zugeben, dass ich fast so etwas wie Schadenfreude empfunden habe, als die Hochzeit so gestört wurde.After eleven previous books we know the main characters really well although I don't think I would ever actually want to know Jarvis. There were parts to the story that felt like they were missing, for example Shona had taken toxicology samples from the victim, however I don't remember reading anything about the results from these tests?
