A Degree of Murder

DCI Garrick - book 9

A frozen corpse. A property deal worth killing for. And a killer who plays by no rules.

DCI David Garrick thought he’d seen it all—until the bodies started piling up.

Deep inside a commercial freezer lies a corpse with a familiar face. What begins as a case of greed and betrayal soon spirals into something far more sinister. Garrick struggles to juggle sleepless nights with a newborn, while his once-loyal team fractures under the weight of personal ambition. Meanwhile, a ruthless killer orchestrates chaos from the shadows.

Each new victim drags Garrick closer to a terrifying truth: somewhere in the city’s criminal underworld lurks a predator so vicious even hardened criminals whisper their name in fear. The rules have changed, and the stakes have never been higher.

Now the hunter has become the hunted.

Good Series Awful Narration

Virtual voice narration, as awful as always, wasn’t enough to put me off this series. It hardly seems fair that performance should affect the star rating average, but performance deserves the single star only because it made the book available for listeners.

Auto generated

I’m sure the book is good but the auto generated voice is not. No inflections, or emotions which doesn’t bring the book to life.
