Summary

An unlikely serial killer with a bucket list of victims....

Police partners, D.I. Calladine and D.S. Ruth Bayliss battle a murderer who is working their way through a list of victims. Each murder is meticulously planned and unique, and a tarot card is left at the scene of the crime. When two children disappear in the local area, the stakes are raised and the team are baffled by the link between the crimes.

Calladine and Bayliss race against time to prevent any more carnage. If you like Angela Marsons, Rachel Abbott, Mel Sherratt, Ruth Rendell, or Mark Billingham you will be gripped by this exciting new crime fiction writer.

Dead List is book three of a new series of detective thrillers featuring D.S. Ruth Bayliss and D.I. Tom Calladine. Calladine discovers shocking new information on his complicated family background and Ruth has some surprising news for him. A new detective, Stephen Greco, also come onto the scene, provoking competition with Calladine.

Tom Calladine is a single, 51-year-old detective inspector who is devoted to his job. His personal life, however, is not so successful. Having been married and divorced before the age of 21 has set a pattern that he finds difficult to escape.

Ruth Bayliss is in her mid-30s, plain-speaking but loyal. She wishes she had more time for the gym and a love life. She uses her demanding workload as an excuse not to try too hard with the men she meets. Her hobby is birdwatching.

The series is set in the fictional village of Leesdon on the outskirts of an industrial northern English city. There is little work and a lot of crime. The bane of Calladine's life is the Hobfield housing estate, breeding ground to all that is wrong with the area that he calls home.

Another good murder book

I enjoy the narration, he does very good different voices making it easy to know who is talking in the book. The story goes along nicely, nothing to win any awards, but enjoyable all the same. I like the continuation of the characters storyline too. I’ll get the rest in the series.

Great listen

It was fast paced from the start, wanted the book to last longer, really enjoyed it, bit gruesome at times, but I don’t mind that in fiction.

Still loving this series

4 stars
A really enjoyable police mystery series. Luckily for me these where in the Audible plus section….as they are only around 5 hours each it’s unlikely that I would have spent a credit on them
Good narration

Lots of action packed into 5 hours!

Calladine and Bayliss are back and this time they're after a killer who appears to hbe going through a list of victims, and each murder is by a different method. There's also a new hotshot DI in town, Stephen Greco, and he starts to tread on Calladine's toes, which doesn't go down well!

On top of this Calladine's love life is a mess and Ruth can't help interfering.

The books in this series are fairly short, but there is so much packed into them and I'm really enjoying the series. The narration, by the impeccable Jonathan Keeble, is fabulous!

Very good

I do hope there will be more. I have enjoyed all my f the three I have listened too. I do enjoy the Narrator Johnathan Keeble too. There must b more that can be found out about Tom and how he gets on in his private life as well as the crimes he manages to sort out.

Fan…bloody…tastic

Another brilliant book in the series. Really getting to like these characters. As I have said before the characters and relationships are strikingly similar to those of other authors eg Denzil Meyrick etc. However the storylines are different enough to forgive this. Excellent narration by Jonathan Keeble as always.
