A major Manchester gangster called Tommy McKinlay is on remand and it looks as though he will be going away for a long stretch. But he knows something that DCI Miller can't possibly afford to be made public. Something about the infamous "Pop" case from three years earlier. Something that could see Miller behind bars, for a very long time. It was supposed to be a very closely guarded secret. As far as Miller was aware, only a handful of people knew the details which are now threatening to destroy his career, and his life. What does McKinlay want in return for his silence? More importantly, can McKinlay be trusted to keep this explosive information silent if Miller agrees to his demands?Twisting the Truth is a heart-stopping DCI Miller page-turner which promises to keep readers guessing until the very last page.Can Miller get out of this? Or is Tommy McKinlay going to be Miller's puppet-master for the rest of time? Will Miller manage to keep his team together as the gravity of the situation rocks his officers who also face disgrace and prison time if McKinlay's information ever became public?

The past comes back to bite Andy on the bum big time, it encroaches on his precious family life when his wife and children have to go into hiding after threats are made against them. Andy's team have no idea the trouble Andy is in, he tries to bluff his way out of it without giving away any of the details which only him and a few very high up's know about. As expected this is an absolutely brilliant read, on a knife-edge but as always interspersed with the unique humour of Steven Suttie. Set in Manchester with its sheer northern grit it is undoubtedly a must-read and a great addition to the series.

The eight in the DCI Miller series and effectively the sequel to book one. Miller, his wife & family come under threat from an inmate who says he has information regarding the “completion and closing off” of the Pop investigation. Again, as with other books, lack of editing, refinement and using the book as a political rant spoil things somewhat, albeit once again, that the initial outline plot is , in principle at least, a good one. That said the efforts to cover tracks are somewhat implausible.

Good read

I've read every book of this author and find his books so life like as his mention of BBC news and sky news bringing it right to your mind of how it happend , as knowing thats what its like when certain news readers give us the news, and you know who they are not by there name but by there way of reporting the news.....looking forward to the next book always a good read

I have enjoyed all of Steven Suttie's, DCI Miller series. Good stories, GREAT characters. I do enjoy novels that try to stay true to English custom; using English spelling rather than American, English vocabulary, giving a look at the people & area.
Manchester is an area I don't know well but I get a bit of a glimpse at through Suttie's books.

Awesome

Absolutely cracking sequel to one man's crusade I've read every single book of Stevens more than twice and can say without doubt you will love them all .
You will question your own moral principles and also learn a lot about Manchester as well as what goes on in hotel kettles .....

What a roller coaster of a book....

I loved all the twists and turns. So many unexpected things happening that kept you gripped tight. I loved reading about the early times of Tommy McKinley and developed a real fear of the monster that he became. An excellent sequel to the Pop saga.

I’m a sucker for Mr Sutties books, they hook you in and keep you on the end of the line until the final page. Gripping stuff, glad I could remember the plot line of its prequel though as that was needed to enjoy this book.

Another excellent DCI Miller story. I'm so glad Suttie didn't ram too much political ramblings down our throats as he normally tends to do. Flowed really well, lots of excitement and not too far fetched.
