Sunspangled

LoveReading Says

Who would want to murder Mark Gower? He’s bright, likeable, intelligent and good looking. But when he’s found dead, it slowly becomes clear that something is missing and not everything is quite as it seems. I really liked the attention to detail throughout the police investigation in ‘Sunspangled’, with explanations of the smaller details like which police officer is selected to interview witnesses and attention to detail about crime scene processing which showed that the author has very clearly done his research.

A murder with a house and campus full of students around means that there’s plenty of scope in the plot to lead you down a number of different avenues, keeping you guessing and the investigation unfolds. I liked that this book used a more matter-of-fact tone to the investigation as opposed to one of drama and tension.

This piqued my curiosity about how the detectives got to their answer as well as finding out who and why. Touching on politics, university life and modern society as a whole as Mark’s death is investigated, I think that ‘Sunspangled’ will be a great book for anyone who enjoys reading police procedurals and likes them filled with realism.
