Back to Life

A DCI Harry McNeil Crime Thriller, Book 3

By: John Carson

Narrated by: Angus King

It looked like a simple murder case. But the victim’s false identity is just the beginning….

Edinburgh DCI Harry McNeil’s dangerous job wasn’t made for relationships. So when a female officer’s mutilated remains wash up in a canal, it feels like proof he was right to leave his long-time girlfriend. But the investigation takes an unexpected turn when he discovers the corpse was carrying a police ID belonging to a cop already dead and buried.

Digging deeper, McNeil learns the woman was actually a software engineer nosing around high-tech, classified projects, and poking into murky government corners. So when a second body surfaces, he fears the truth lies in the darkest corners of greed and corruption. And someone is determined to make certain those secrets never come to light. Can McNeil catch the killer before the deadly tables are turned on him?

Great series

I love these series,I just wish they were all on Audible. Angus King does a great job.

Disjointed and reads like an abridged version

The plot had so much potential but it is never realized because the storyline is disjointed and reads like an abridged version. Also way to many F bombs and constantly using Jesus as a swear word

Again to short!

Again to short for the price! It takes two novels to make one decent book!

I really wanted to like it

The first was pretty terrible. I decided to give it a second try. Mistake. This one was worse. The story line is incredibly weak, it jumps all over the place, and the characters would likely make the worst detectives in history in real life. Every turn is not only predictable but amateur. I’m sad to say this series is a pass.
