A Mark of Imperfection by Rhys Dylan is book 6 in the DCI Evan Warlow series. They are set in Wales. These books get better and better and they were great to start with. His team are back with him – Jess, Gil, Rhys and Catrin and of course his friend, Cadi his dog. The book is sprinkled with humour, some places where you just have to laugh. I love the way Rhys paints the scene – I can see it in my mind. A group of hikers doing their Duke of Edinburgh Gold Award come across a horrific scene and Evan is brought in to investigate as it involves his old nemesis, the Geoghans. DI Kelvin Caldwell is on the team and he badly affects their cohesion. You can feel the tension he creates in the group. I cried at the end. Highly recommended.

Another captivating murder mystery that was hard to put down.
Dylan has developed interesting characters that readers can relate to and begin to care about as well as others who we vehemently dislike. This one had me worrying about one member of the team and cheering on others who stepped up when needed.
Once again, the twist came near the end and totally flawed me. I had to read the line when the reveal came three times to make sense of what I was reading since it was not expected by me at least.
Some issues were resolved well in this novel and I look forward to reading the next in this series.

This is a fantastic series that gets better and better. I love the character development and the team's dynamic is a joy to read as they continue to grow together. Well-written, well-paced, and thoroughly entertaining
