About this deal

Even though the characters weren't particularly original I still enjoyed Jack Logan's no-nonsense approach to everything, his traditional ways and his often grouchy attitude and the descriptions of the Scottish Highlands painted a picture so vivid and beautiful in my head I felt like I was there. So either he’s been writing these for a long time and keeping them in a (big) shoebox, or he’s LJ Ross-level prolific. It definitely is a Scottish Detective Mystery, and I can see the comparisons with both Smith and Mayhew’s works.

The "Scottishness" of DCI Logan and his fellow "polis", was entertaining and Logan's get up and go attitude was refreshing. Labai lengvai ir greitai įsijaučiau į siužetą, o detektyvų komandoje dirbantys personažai buvo įdomiai sukurti, su charizma ir puikiu humoro jausmu. Instead, they serve to increase the sense of suspense and to keep the reader on the edge of their seat.I can't resist comparing this with another Scottish police procedural I read a couple of years ago with a main character named Logan (although in that case it's a first rather than a last name) and featuring child abductions, Cold Granite. I look forward to getting to know Jack and this team of investigators better as I get further into the series. I am not usually affected by 'triggers', but I had to 'speed up' the audiobook narration whenever there were mentions of the hideous cruelty inflicted on several cats.

The character development of Logan is well done, and the reader will find themselves rooting for him as he tries to piece together the mystery of the murders. Firstly, it’s hard to ignore the fact that Hoon and Logan could ALMOST be the very same detective, if not for a few minor differences. We will process the refund due to you as soon as possible and, in any case within thirty (30) days of the day we confirm via e-mail that you are entitled to a refund for defective goods. Yes, the mystery was interesting enough, and development and disclosure were well constructed, but I just felt the detective was such an obnoxious character that I really couldn’t enjoy it. The author does an excellent job of creating a sense of realism, and the reader will feel as though they are right there alongside DCI Jack Logan as he edged closer to solving the case.Applicability of cancellation rights: Legal rights of cancellation under the Distance Selling Regulations available for UK or EU consumers do not apply to certain products and services. of our deliveries are made by Royal Mail as we think they give the best service and cover all areas of the UK. J D Kirk is a pseudonym for a different author's first crime novel, which was interesting to me - I wonder if I've read any of his other stuff?
