On a wild and stormy night on England’s south coast, ambitious young police constables Rutherford Barnes and Harriet Holden are doing the rounds when they see a burglar fleeing the scene of the crime.

And the location is Harriet’s house. The ground floor is ransacked. Scrawled in red across one wall are the words: DEAD COPS SLEEP LONG.

Then a few days later, Harriet’s battered body is discovered in a shabby seafront hotel.

Newly promoted to detective, Barnes vows to discover who killed his partner, and why.

A solidly great read..

Well written story that could have been tauter, and more impactful, with less repetition of story's primary tropes. Cumulatively it felt like the writer holds a remarkably low opinion of his readers capacity to grasp the story's essentials. Given, however, all the dialed-in writing that exists in this genre and the high quality of this book's writing if not structure, the book is definitely worth the credit!
