LONGLISTED FOR THE CWA GOLD DAGGER
______________________

After The Puppet Show, a new storm is coming . . .

Jared Keaton, chef to the stars. Charming. Charismatic. Psychopath . . . He's currently serving a life sentence for the brutal murder of his daughter, Elizabeth. Her body was never found and Keaton was convicted largely on the testimony of Detective Sergeant Washington Poe.

So when a young woman staggers into a remote police station with irrefutable evidence that she is Elizabeth Keaton, Poe finds himself on the wrong end of an investigation, one that could cost him much more than his career.

Helped by the only person he trusts, the brilliant but socially awkward Tilly Bradshaw, Poe races to answer the only question that matters: how can someone be both dead and alive at the same time?

And then Elizabeth goes missing again - and all paths of investigation lead back to Poe.

The gripping new thriller in the Washington Poe series from M. W. Craven, winner of the CWA Gold Dagger Award for best crime novel of 2019.

good

Two words: Ortolan Bunting.
Please excuse me while I vomit. And maybe cry.
No, seriously, the first scene is one of the most horrific and upsetting things I've ever read. (Which probably makes me a bad person because there are so many worse things in this world, but... animals. I can't handle animals bring hurt. Ugh, I'm getting a little teary just thinking about that revolting abomination of a "delicacy.")
So, yes, it starts off strong. It's a particularly interesting story with a grotesque and satisfying conclusion. Also, the villain was such a piece of work. Ugh. I wanted him to be punished so badly. Totally repellant.
Also, there were a few lines that made me snort-laugh. I appreciated that.

great story, setting and characters.

I'm difficult to please regarding crime thrillers but this is definitely a cut above most of the others. the characters are more fleshed out and the dialogue has depth.
