Book Review

The Price of Darkness by Graham Hurley
I've started to look forward to a new Graham Hurley novel and this one didn't disappoint. This is the eighth book featuring D/I Joe Faraday and D/C Paul Winter and over the series the characters have been well developed. The novels are set in Portsmouth, and that cities heartbeat is well described - its naval history, its football team, its rivalry with Southampton. Like the Rebus novels, they bring in some topical subjects. Peerages for sale and defunct company pension schemes in this one. All in all an excellent series. Look forward to the next one.
