A Degree of Murder

DCI Garrick #9

by M.G. Cole

A frozen corpse. A property deal worth killing for. DCI David Garrick thought he'd seen it all—until the bodies started piling up.

Deep in the bowels of a commercial freezer, death wears a familiar face. What begins as a straightforward case of greed and betrayal quickly spirals into something far more sinister. While Garrick struggles to balance sleepless nights with a newborn and watch his once-loyal team fracture under the weight of personal ambitions, a ruthless killer is orchestrating chaos from the shadows.

Each new victim brings Garrick closer to a terrifying somewhere in the city's criminal underworld lurks a predator so vicious that even hardened criminals whisper their name in fear. The rules have changed. The stakes have never been higher.

And now the hunter has become the hunted.

I didn't see it comming

Well thought out and written. A lot of suspense and who done it. Also surprise on who lives and who dies. And the ending came from left field. Great read
