About this deal

Her eleventh novel, The Infirmary, is a prequel story to the DCI Ryan series and is available as a major Audible Originals audio-drama starring Tom Bateman, Kevin Whately, Bertie Carvel, Hermione Norris and Alun Armstrong.

Anyway, all in all I'm glad I read it, and I might venture to read another at some point, but it wasn't exactly gripping. I can only assume all of those loose ends are part of the setup for the next book or two – at least I hope that is the case.With Denise threatening anyone and everyone in the building to not let Frank have any treats as he’s supposed to be on a diet, the wily ways of the two of them is something to behold. The environmentalism and fracking debates were interesting, but I would have liked these to have been more of a focus than the repeated worshipful paragraphs about Ryan.

Also, there were a few times where the author seemed to be complementing herself on her own humour, or deliberately setting up a joke only for it to be a bit crap. However, the rest of it seemed lacking somehow – every other thread outside of the mystery was left hanging. The death of one of the locals isn’t as clear cut as everyone seems to think and it’s great seeing the team working together as the case gets more twisted and complicated.

So many phrases that just grated because yes, they do the job, but isn't there a fresher way to say them? A fatica sono a metà del libro, lo trovo estremamente noioso, i personaggi sono irriconoscibili, si perdono in chiacchiere e schermaglie inutili all'economia della storia, che ancora non decolla. To find out more about the many philanthropic ventures Louise has founded and sponsored through her publishing imprint, Dark Skies Publishing, please visit ‘Philanthropy’. You give a wonderful description of the area and we will be visiting soon while I await the next instalment. As always Ryan is quick to spot the clues and ably assisted by Frank and McKenzie the culprits are brought to justice.

To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Fred Humble is a cantankerous man with no friends so when he is found dead in his cottage in Holystone no-one mourns him. Lady's Well" (the 20th book in her DCI Ryan series) is available in ebook format now, with paperback and audio formats coming soon!One in particular shocked me to the core and I could feel my jaw dropping more than a few times as I raced through the pages. For me there was too much Ryan and Frank driving around and talking, and less interesting interaction between all of Ryan's department. Sembra davvero che sia stato scritto da un autore diverso, che ha solo una vaga idea dei personaggi, che ama dilungarsi in sermoni spesso inutili e irritanti e fa fatica a costruire una trama degna dei romanzi precedenti, di cui era difficile, invece, interrompere la lettura. While the mystery was perplexing and well-delivered, the rest of the story was a series of loose ends with the major characters. I laughed so much throughout with Frank’s one liners, he is 100% a character that I will forever love!
