DEAD IN THE WATER BY SIMON McCLEAVE – BOOK REVIEW

Published by Avon 20th June 202

When a seventeen-year-old girl vanishes from her home overnight, DI Laura Hart knows that time is of the essence.

Then, an inmate at the local prison is murdered in her cell and suddenly Beaumaris CID is juggling two major investigations.

With inmates refusing to talk to the police, Laura is forced to take drastic action: going undercover behind bars.

With everyone under suspicion, Laura’s true identity must be kept a secret, meaning no one can protect her.

Simon McCleave is a million-selling crime novelist who lives in Wales with his wife and children. His first book, The Snowdonia Killings, was an Amazon Bestseller, and all other novels in the DI Ruth Hunter series ranked in the Top 20. The books are now set to be filmed as a major television series. The Dark Tide, the first book in an Anglesey-based crime series, was a hit in 2022. Reaching Amazon’s UK Top10, it became the highest-selling Waterstone’s Welsh Book of the Month ever.

This is a stand-alone read as you get a bit of back story with it but it is part of a series, which all sound good. I loved the way this all came together towards the end and the two investigations joined together. Was a surprise to me as didn’t think that would happen. Can see why this author has so many best sellers as he is brilliant and well recommended.
