Death Message by Mark Billingham

1.0

I am usually a fan of this series, but not when it deals with gang warfare or the criminal underworld. That is simply something I am not interested in, and there's too much of it here! So that's a personal preference - much the same reason I gave The Burning Girl a low score. I prefer the serial killer/murder mystery aspect - ghoulish, I know! Billingham avoids the cliches that plague most other British police procedurals, so that is why I keep coming back to them, even when I don't like one!
