Corpse Road

A DCI Harry Grimm Novel

By: David J Gatward

Narrated by: Aubrey Parsons

Picturesque hills stained with blood. An MO like no other. Can this senior officer draw on his paratrooper past to catch a twisted mind?

DCI Harry Grimm is still grappling with the Yorkshire Dales custom of eating cheese with cake. But the seasoned big-city cop has more than enough experience getting pulled out of bed in the middle of the night for the grisliest crimes. So the gruesome early-hour discovery of a woman’s savaged remains on the bleakly beautiful terrain has the detective keen to slam an ugly killer behind bars….

With both a clear motive and an obvious offender firmly in his sights, the dedicated policeman hunts relentlessly for the killer. But when the prime suspect goes missing and Grimm reworks the scene, he fears he sees signs of meticulous military planning and a culprit with a long list of victims.

Can the tough investigator get into the head of a murderer before he’s called to the next kill zone?

Corpse Road is the mesmerizing third book in the DCI Harry Grimm crime fiction series. If you like razor-sharp cops, insanely bent villains, and dark, gripping plots, then you’ll love David J. Gatward’s wild ride through the moors.

Love this Series

I have 305 books in my audible library – most of them mysteries or police procedurals set in the UK.
This week, I’ve blown through the first three of the series because they I so well written. The characters are believable and endearing, the setting is gorgeous, and the plot engaging. I also very much appreciate the narration, which is lively and full of warmth and texture. I strongly recommend the series.

Good, but slightly flawed.

Really enjoyed, but early on an obvious clue referencing the computers and the internet kind of gave away the perpetrator. If that clue had been eliminated it would have me guessing. Still a great listen with Aubrey!

Predictable

At least the last two were for me. I like the characters and the reader, but I would like a bit more surprise "who done it".

Ready to go fell walking!

I absolutely love the Harry Grimm character. His sometimes sour disposition is far outweighed by his practicality, his knowledge of human nature, and his maturing throughout this series. The author's notes at the end of the stories are a favorite of mine. This particular on has me ready for fell walking in the Dale's and caving in Crackpot. Another "Well done!"

worth the time.

the storyline was good, and I enjoyed the British accent. I am going to listen to the next in the series, see how it goes
