Summary

Imperfection is the second in a series of classic murder mysteries with a twist set in Leeds, featuring DI Stewart Gardener.

When theatregoers are treated to the gruesome spectacle of an actor’s lifeless body hanging on the stage, DI Stewart Gardener is immediately called in to investigate. Is the killer still in the audience? 

A lockdown is set in motion, but it is soon apparent that the murderer is able to come and go unnoticed. How do they do it? 

Is the killer a theatre worker or an actor? And what kind of grudge do they have to bear? 

Frustratingly, the killer leaves a trail of clues for the Detectives. Taunted by these and flummoxed as to their meaning, DI Gardener realises that his own family may be in danger. 

Identifying and capturing the culprit will mean establishing the motive for their macabre crimes, but perhaps not before more victims meet their fate.

Confusing Listen

I did enjoy this book. But, and this is pehaps more about me than the writer, but l got lost several times and had to keep rewinding to keep up with the plot. as with most modern crime fiction it could be abridged quite easily and little would be lost. The narrator is fine (save for a very dodgy Irish character). The body count is high and its not too gruesome but there are some very weired deaths! This is book 2 of the series. whilst they are both stand alone tales I think book one is far better, and a better place to start.
