Dead Time - Tony Parsons

4/5

Having recently read The Murder Bag, The first book to feature DC Max wolf, I was eager to start this one, book 1.5 as I also have The Slaughter Man, the next book in this series to read.

This story kicks off pretty much right away with a Murder, and although Max is not the investigating officer, he becomes very involved in the investigation as it happened right across from his apartment.

With short stories I find I have to be really careful with my reviews as I donโ€™t want to give too much away.

But although I didnโ€™t find it as good as the Murder Bag, It has set me up ready to read the next one, which I am hoping to do very soon.

I like Max Wolfe, I donโ€™t know what it is about him, but I really do like his character.

He is a single working Dad, and lives with his young daughter Scout and their dog.

I am now ready for the next book..

Firstly Thanks to Netgalley and the publishers for letting me read this book.

DC Wolfe. for DC wolfe, life is about being another Male copper bringing up a daughter on his own.
I enjoy the private lives of characters as much as the work life, the police side of it. And in this book I liked Wolfe as a Daddy as well as Wolfe as a Police officer. 
The story is based around a group of rich kids, who get up to no good at school, and the evil they did back then has followed them into adult life, with someone seeking revenge for their evils.

But can Wolfe and his team figure out just what went on, and who is behind it all. Wolfe like a lot of fictional coppers doesn't always want to follow rules, and lets be honest, if every fictional copper followed the rules we would get sick of reading about them. 

There are quite a few twists through this book. Some great characters. And although part way through I felt it was a little repetitive in parts, I really did end up enjoying this book. And I look forward to reading the next one.
