This is the first book in the DI Adam burnt police procedural series... it is also this author’s debut, so a big congratulations on your first published book! More than I will ever be able to say, that is for sure!
So Adam has moved his family to a different location in the UK, mainly to improve his marriage... The problem is Adam is married to his work, he also does not trust his wife... at all! However, this book focuses much more on the case rather than Adam’s home life... two teenage boys are murdered and their bodies are found close together... how are these murders related and why would anybody kill these young boys? When another body is discovered the case really gets heated up with much pressure to solve... Adam is a committed detective however his lack of familiarity with the area does hurt him....
This is a book you need to pay close attention to as it jumps around quite a bit... admittedly there were times where I was a bit confused and had to go back and reread... i’m thinking because this was the author’s debut he probably had a lot going on in his head that he wanted to put to paper.... but sometimes less is a little bit better... definitely a complex plot that kept me on my toes! I also thought Adam Burnt was a interesting character and I am super curious to see what this character does next... there is quite a bit of potential for some tremendous character growth with him!
Recommend two fans of the police procedural, a good start to what looks like a wonderful series!

3.5☆ A Debut Crime Thriller
(Rounded up to 4☆ for Amazon and Goodreads)
Murder By The Broads is a crime thriller, debut novel and the first book in a new series.
DI Adam Burnt has just moved into a new area with his family and it's not long before his thrown into a double murder.
Two teenage boys have been found murdered. Adam is tasked to work out if the two murders are connected.
I think the case is particularly tough as they two boys are both young.
The story is told in alternate time lines from the present and leading up to the murders. I quiet like it written like this as the reader gets to be involved from the start.
However I did get a little confused at times when the story switched and found myself flicking back to make sure.
The pace is steady which made a change to the fast paced crime thrillers/ mysteries I usually read.
You do get a fair amount of story about Adam and his home life. I am intrigued to see how his character will develop. He is extremely dedicated to the force and his family seem to take a back seat.
Murder By The Broads is a slower paced crime fiction, that has a few lil twists and a dedicated DI.
Overall a good first book in the series.
Intrigued to see what's next in-store for the series.
Thank you to Bloodhound books for this copy which I reviewed honestly and voluntarily.

"Murder By The Broads" is the first book in the DS Adam Burnt series based in Great Yarmouth. The author, Anthony Tamiozzo, uses this setting as it is where he grew up and having known many people who died or were killed because of drugs he uses these memories to inspire his writing and drugs feature strongly in this, his first book.
When the body of a dead teenager is found having been stabbed and another is discovered crushed by a lorry in a nearby location it has the look of a ruckus that had fatal consequences for the two involved. However, DS Burnt has a feeling that there may be more to it and resolves to investigate the matter further. Will it be a tragic fight gone wrong or will there be far more sinister undertones to the two boys' deaths?
I was eager to get into this one as it sounded right up my street but unfortunately it didn't quite work for me. Don't get me wrong, the story was engaging and interesting and had all of the elements to make it a fantastic read. However, there were a few issues with it - firstly, there were a multitude of different strands that made up the plot which meant it was difficult to keep up with and made me think that the author had tried to cram in as much action as possible. In most books less in most certainly more, and although I enjoyed DS Adam Burnt's character, I felt that at times there was a little too much information about his troubled relationship with his wife whom he believes has been unfaithful and not enough focus on building his character identity. The format was overcomplicated as not only does it move back and forth between present day and the lead up to the two teenagers deaths, it also has changing points-of-view and sometimes these changes appeared unannounced in the middle of a chapter so if you don't spot it quickly you easily become lost and rather confused. As we do not know the characters well with it being the first book this obviously made the recognition of different voices and perspectives almost impossible.
This is a promising debut from an author who definitely appears to have the potential to be successful if he just reigns it back a little. I will be keeping up with this series and watching its evolution closely. I hope to learn more about the characters in the upcoming books, especially DS Burnt - I feel his personal development was put on the back-burner here in order to explore his troubled marriage. Ultimately, as I read fiction for relaxation purposes this overcomplicated format coupled with the non-stop plot action made it difficult to enjoy and takes a lot of effort to keep up with.

Murder By The Broads is the authors debut novel and the first book in a new series to feature DS Adam Burnt. Adam is someone that never quite turns off from his work. Even though he is married with a young family, when spending time with them his mind always seems to drift to the case he is currently working on. Then of course there is also the issue with his own marriage and whether he can trust his wife or not. Even though we get to know a bit about Adam, I feel like there is more to come with this character. His personal life, even though we get a few snippets, is more in the background and the author concentrates more on the case. I actually like this as sometimes authors can spend too much time letting the reader get to know the characters at the expense of the story. Well thankfully not in this instance.
The story flicks back and forth from present day to events leading up to the death of two boys of which is where the story starts off. I’m sure attending a murder isn’t easy at the best of times but it’s even worse when it’s someone that whom hasn’t fully reached adulthood yet. The fact that it isn’t just one death but two had my interest piqued right away.
The pace of the story is a steady one picking up every now and again in places. It’s certainly one you need to keep your wits about you to keep up with the story line so you don’t get lost. Not that, that’s a bad thing, it’s just with the story going back and forth and then flicking between certain characters, it’s one that you may need to concentrate on that little bit more.
Murder By The Broads is a dark and tense read with a few surprises up it’s sleeve. It’s a strong and solid start by an author who I think is going to go from strength to strength. Will certainly be looking forward to more by him after this commendable debut.

This is a great debut novel. We are introduced to DS Adam Burnt who has recently moved to the Norfolk police for a fresh start. Although we get an insight into his personal life I hope we get to know more about him in the future.
His first investigation is into the deaths of two young boys found close to each other. The plot thickens when there is another death.
The story is told through present and past. It’s a complex story which you need to concentrate on to get the most from the story. I really enjoyed this story and look forward to reading more from him in the future.

I do love books that are set in areas that I have visited and as my husband lived in Martham within the Norfolk Broads when I met him and we visited Great Yarmouth quite a few times I knew this was a book that would spark my interest!
The pace was good for this one and I enjoyed the plot but I found it was a little disjointed about a third of the way through but it soon picked back up and I enjoyed the ending.
The characters in the story were good and they are definitely ones I wouldn’t mind reading about again. They were well developed and I enjoyed that their different personalities shone through.
Four stars from me for this one, I thoroughly enjoyed it!

I would like to thank Netgalley and Bloodhound Books for an advance copy of Murder by the Broads, the first novel to feature DS Adam Burnt of the Norfolk police.
When the body of a teenager is found stabbed to death and a second crushed by a lorry nearby the crimes have the look of a fight gone wrong but DS Adam Burnt, recently transplanted from the Midlands, thinks there may be more to it.
Murder by the Broads has an interesting, multi-stranded plot but the format makes it a difficult, complicated read and it didn't really hold my interest. It has a constantly changing point of view, often within the same chapter which means re-reading some sentences in order to adapt to the new new voice, and the timeline starts in the present, jumps back two weeks then restarts in the present. I understand why the author has chosen to write this way, his plot has so many strands it's an easy way to cram in all the information but it doesn't make for a particularly satisfying read as the reader is pushed from pillar to post with all the rapid changes of perspective, leaving no meaty chunks to get engrossed in. There is a good, well devised plot in there somewhere but finding it takes a lot of effort.
Adam Burnt is a dedicated, smart detective with one fatal flaw, he is convinced his wife is having an affair. As this seems to be his default position I suspect it will be a recurring theme in future novels and not one I'm keen to explore. I'm of the put up or shut up school of thought so have no patience with the self torture when solutions can be found.
Murder by the Broads is an ok read but the unnecessarily complicated format lets it down.

Murder By The Broads by Anthony Tamiozzo
In his debut novel author Anthony Tamiozzo introduces us to DS Adam Burnt. Burnt moved his family from the east to the midlands a couple years before the story begins and seems to still not be 100% part of the police team he works with. His partner, DC Ashley, his partner, does seem to have his back.
Burnt is different than most heroes. Main characters in this genre often have flaws but Burnt’s are a bit different than others I have met through reading and for some reason I would really like to know why he is so jealous, why he puts his job before his family and a bit more about his past. His flaws begin to show soon in the story and increase as he works to find out who might be behind the death of two young men. The flaws are not enough to keep him from doing his job but definitely make him interesting.
The story begins in the present with DS Burnt being called out to the location of the dead youths. A few chapters in the story goes back a week in time to the beginning of the story and unfolds in a way that I was not expecting. There are drugs, young thugs, mental patients, internal police issues, family issues and more that are exposed as a clearer picture of what occurred and why it happened as it did is unveiled.
Did I enjoy this book? Yes
Will I read more by this author? Yes

DS Adam Burnt has recently transferred to the Norfolk police force in an attempt to start afresh with his family after believing his wife had been unfaithful. Determined to do his job to the best of his ability there are times when his home life becomes an afterthought. He has had a few issues settling in partially down to his lack of knowledge of the area and partially down to the animosity shown by DS Griffin who is determined to get the vacant DI position and is not overly bothered on the tactics he uses to get there.
DS Burnt along with DC James Ashley head an investigation into the deaths of two boys within close timeframes and locations which look very much like a fight that had fatal consequences. Due to an unfortunate incident involving one of the victims, DS Burnt finds himself having to share the investigations with DS Griffin. Griffin appears to be quick to jump to conclusions and take the easy route to solving the case where Burnt is convinced there is more to it. When a house fire results in another murder, his time is stretched even further as witnesses appear to be relevant to both cases. Is it just coincidence or are all these deaths linked to one issue?? The further he investigates the more he is concerned on who he can trust….especially when it looks like one of their own is deliberately trying to sabotage the investigations.
I will admit that at first I struggled to deal with the way the story jumped from one case to the other and I was not sure of the relevance of some of the characters as their introduction seemed a bit random,. That being said I am glad that I persevered. The book soon picks up pace and the things that confused me at the start began to make sense. DS Burnt may not have been the most popular person within the station but his determination to solve the case and the trust and loyalty of his colleague DC Ashley had me warming to him by the end of the book.
This is the first novel by Anthony Tamiozzo and it will be interesting to see if there is more in store for DS Burnt and DC Ashley. If you are looking for a book that will challenge you and make you think, this is one for you.

A story with many facets which take some keeping up with until gradually they all start to intertwine in such a devious plot it beggars belief of your regular citizen. This book disturbingly gives a birds eye inside view into the minds ravaged by drugs and the evil beings who profit from their misery, who will stop at nothing to cover their tracks. Detective Burnt is clever and honest but he’s fighting against the odds with a bent colleague carefully pointing him in the wrong direction. The chapters are told from each character’s point of view which takes some keeping up with if you’re not reading in one sitting but it’s so worth persevering as this is original, gripping and a very cleverly told tale. A great read.

This is a real page turner and it's hard to believe it is a debut novel. The pace is fast and the plot complex, keeping the reader thoroughly engrossed from the first page to the last, although I fear the number of strands running through may be a little off-putting for some. The story starts in the present day, then goes back a week to explain how events have unfolded to get to where they currently are, and then moves forward onto the shocking conclusion. The good characters were (in the main part) good with the customary few flaws, and the baddies were really bad! I liked DI Burnt and DC Ashley, and I hope that they appear in another story soon as I really enjoyed this one.

An excellent debut novel featuring DS Adam Burnt. The story flicks between the present day and the events leading up to the deaths of two boys. You really have to concentrate on this book and the pace is steady and tense. I had to go back and reread a couple of times due to the format but it is a good read and I would recommend it. My thanks to Net Galley for my copy.

DS Adam Burnt's move to the Broads is not going well. But is made worse when he is called out to the scene of two deaths. What is the story leading to the deaths of these boys and who else has been and will be affected.
An interesting well-written story with a multi-lavered plot which kept my interest. A good start for a new series, in which I expect to learn more about these characters.

DS Adam Burnt has just moved to the Norfolk Police Force from the Midlands for personal reasons (He thinks his wife is cheating on him). He lands his first case which is the death of two teenage boys who, according to a witness, were fighting. Later there is another death.
Murder by the Broads is a good Police Procedural. I enjoyed the story, though I found it complicated to follow the various shifts in time and characters but overall not a bad read at all

Brilliant for a first novel, highly entertaining, serious and yet hilarious with the farcical antics of the inept criminals. It was such an involved plot that you had to concentrate to keep up with the action. The author must have done an immense amount of research though I think the psychiatric setting was fantasy rather than fiction. More a crime romp than a murder thriller, great read. Look forward to a follow up book to see what Adam Burnt does next.

Good story
This is a good yarn but a bit confusing and slow in parts. Probably did not help that I had only short intervals to read. Characters emerge and make sense over time. Worth the effort.

Brilliant
Loved the book, the way the different plots all joined together to create the story was very clever. The imagery was very powerful.

Murder By The Broads is the debut novel by Anthony Tamiozzo and what a brilliant debut it is.DI Adam Burnt who has recently transferred to Norfolk Constabulary is tasked with leading the investigation after the discovery of two bodies only a few hundred yards apart,DC Burnt is assisted by DC Ashley in what is quite a complex but well written story that will keep you guessing right to the very end.Hopefully this is not the last we will hear from DI Burnt and look forward to his next investigation.

A boy is dead after being hit by a vehicle and another boy is found with a knife in his neck. No one is sure what happened. Nothing seems to fit and the search is on for a suspect. Adam Burnt is assigned the case and he's determined to solve it.. No one is telling the truth so it will take all his skills to figure it out.
The writing was very confusing to me, with people being introduced with not much information about who they are . The story is interesting with twists and turns and a surprise at the end.

This started off so well and I was very excited. Then I don't know what happened; I understand that the author wanted more than one thread running through, but either there were too many threads or each thread had too many people attached. I got totally confused by which criminal was attached to which crime. At times it felt like the initial murder had been forgotten in amongst everything else that was going on. I got hopelessly lost, and that led to me losing interest in the outcome. It ended up taking me over a week to read because I kept falling asleep whilst reading. Not for me this one I'm afraid.
