I really enjoyed this new crime series. Set in Peterborough the story centres on migrant workers who are exploited by gangs in what is little more than slave labour. The discovery of a murdered victim in a garden shed introduces us to DI Zigic and DC Fereira part of the newly created hate crime unit in the Cambridgeshire police force.
The plot moves apace , there are twists aplenty and perhaps best of all when the crime seems resolved the writer brilliantly shifts the ground from under the readers feet. Really intelligent writing, an excellent plot with characters that I enjoyed .I love finding new crime writing which doesn't pander to cliches in characters, has intelligent plotting, and leaves the reader satisfied with its conclusion wanting more, so I'm looking forward to reading book 2.
