Product Description

Review
'has a vivid sense of place...Crowby becomes more than a fictional town: it's almost a state of mind. Moreover its inhabitants are wonderfully characterised' Andrew Taylor 'a lean, impressive debut...Kerr and Jacobson are a pleasure to meet and who offer hoped for more rich reading in future additions to the series' Washington Post 'Kerr and Jacbson have made a cracking debut - it really would be criminal if you did not read them' Northern Echo

Product Description
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 forty-eight 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.

5.0 out of 5 stars perfect must-read, 11 Jul 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Perfectly Dead (Paperback)
Iain Mcdowall is one of the best new British crime writers. This book grabs you by the throat and doesn't let go until the last gripping page. A must read treat for crime fans.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great storytelling, 31 Mar 2007
By I. H. Robinson (Woodstock, Ontario) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Perfectly Dead (Paperback)
Down to earth, discriptive and engrossing. Definitely a smoother story than a Study in Death. Recommended. looking forward to Cut her dead.
