Bamburgh: A DCI Ryan Mystery (The DCI Ryan Mysteries Book 19)

Reviews

Although the protagonist is identified from the outset the twists and turns and reactions of the other characters to the protagonist provide the reader with sufficient anticipation to wonder how he will ultimately get his comeuppance. Some readers may be put off by the reveal at the beginning of the book by identification of the murderer. Will the resilience and determination to gain retribution for a sister’s murder win the internal fight to balance justice with personal revenge? .

However I enjoyed this alternative style as it provided a unique opportunity to delve into the mind and character of what was a disturbing and deeply deceptive police officer with a hidden lifestyle. I couldn't put my Kindle down as I read cover to cover in a single night. This is a topical theme to the book which made me shiver as I remember the fate of Sarah Everard and her trust in the police officer who raped and murdered her.

The issue of who we place our trust in to safeguard our well-being is an ongoing debate with so many enquiries into the behaviour of public servants. Just for the non believers - sunset over Bamburgh👍

Unusually, there are no mysteries for the reader to unravel this time. Whilst this may not be the best book in the series, if you liked previous DCI Ryan tales, you'll enjoy this one too 👌
