MISSING: Unit Not Responding

by Geoff Jackson

When police officers begin disappearing while answering routine calls, Merseyside is plunged into fear. Patrol cars are found abandoned. Radios fall silent. And every new disappearance suggests a pattern no one wants to face.

DCI Sarah Whitmore leads the hunt, but the deeper she digs, the clearer it becomes that the missing officers were not chosen at random.

Somewhere in the shadows, someone is deciding who deserves to disappear — and believes the system failed long before they did.

Set across Liverpool and the Wirral, Unit Not Responding is a tense, atmospheric crime thriller about justice, obsession and the terrifying cost of deciding who deserves to vanish.

An enjoyable read with an interesting, fast paced writing style. I would have liked a bit more detail/descriptions of the local areas described. It was a little repetitive in parts.

Pacy thriller that kept me up late trying to solve the crime along with the detectives. Love the mention of the Sea Shanty in New Brighton too. They do great coffee and cake!

This book drew me in from the first page, a really fast paced and gripping story, I devoured it in two days, I’m looking forward to the next one.
