Publisher's summary

It’s DCI Warren Jones’ coldest case yet…

The body of Reginald Williamson had been well concealed under a bush in Middlesbury Common and the murder efficiently carried out – a single stab wound to the chest. Reggie’s dog had been killed just as efficiently. With no clues or obvious motive, the case is going nowhere. Then Warren gets a break.

Warren’s instincts tell him that the informant is dodgy – a former police officer under investigation. But when Warren hears the incredible story he has to tell, he's glad to have given him a chance to speak. Suddenly, a wide criminal conspiracy, involving high-level police corruption, a gangster and a trained killer, is blown wide open…and Warren finds that this time, it’s not just his career under threat, but his family – and his life.

Fans of Peter Robinson and Peter James will love Silent as the Grave, the third novel in Paul Gitsham's DCI Warren Jones series.

Best of the first 3 books.

Things get real in the third book of the series. Much easier to listen to than the first 2.

A good read

Not as good, I thought as the previous books but still a good British mystery .

Extraordinary

This is the complex very well written book, and has extremely good character development. I reread it a few times in places, simply because the reading is super and the plot is even better. If you like British police procedurals with real character development, try this one out

Disappointing all around

Be it unfair to rate a book without finishing it, I’ll share my modest experience. The narrator’s characterization of a particular character, one who makes up much of the book’s dialogue, became unbearably irritating. The story itself was not the strongest of the series either. I finish most books, but after struggling to engage in this one, just let it go.
