The Watchers

This book follows DCI Steve Burt who is the lead of the Special Resolutions Unit at New Scotland Yard. An ex-colleague of his brings a missing persons case to his attention that the police have dismissed, but soon they believe there is more to this case than just a missing person. DCI Steve Burt starts to investigate going against orders from higher up. Meanwhile, a high-profile couple are murdered, and Steve is ordered to make this case his priority. With both cases developing at the same time, DCI Steve Burt tries to solve both cases at the same time. Is there more to this case than a missing person? How will DCI Steve Burt manage both investigations at the same time. I enjoyed reading this crime mystery, as the main character DCI Steve Burt really cares about solving the cases and about his team. He also isn’t afraid to go against orders and to do things his own way. It was great to read the interactions between the colleagues and the people also brought in to help with the investigations. It showed a great lot of teamwork, and how respected the DCI is to his colleagues. I would love to read more of DCI Steve Burt’s mysteries in the future. Overall, a gripping crime mystery where DCI Steve Burt is up against it to solve two very important cases. Jennylou
