More About This Title Perfectly Dead

English

Chief Inspector Jacobson hates drug-related cases. Not least because it means he has to work with the drug squad. But there's no alternative when a local dealer turns up burnt, battered, and dead. Just another hopeless, pointless sink estate incident in the middle of a grey, Crowby February. But even so Dave Carter's torched body is the stuff of bad dreams. Death doesn't get any grimmer, Jacobson thinks. But that's because Jacobson, DS Kerr, and Crowby CID are still 48 hours away from the Perfect Family killings . . . five dead in a leafy suburb where bad things aren't supposed to happen. And the only witness may never speak again.

"The chill and gloom of the English Midlands setting echoes the tone of the events, and peeling back the layers of the lead characters' lives is as fascinating as the police procedural itself. The third in an absorbing series, riveting, surprising, and good to the last page."  —I Love a Mystery"Compares favorably with Ian Rankin."  —Publishers Weekly on Killing for England
