No Lovelier Death (DI Joe Faraday) - Softcover
Two murdered teenagers. Who will get to the killer first? The police, or the crimelord who owes a debt to the dead girl's father?
A teenager throws a party while her parents are away, with horrific consequences. The invitation to Rachel's party is put out on Facebook and more than a hundred kids descend on the house in the affluent suburb. The party turns into a riot and the property is trashed. And before the night is over, Rachel and her boyfriend are dead.
With two bodies, one the daughter of a high-profile judge, a massive crime scene and over a hundred suspects, DI Faraday is confronted with a nightmare investigation. But someone else wants to find the killer...
The judge's neighbour who has promised to keep a eye on things while he was away feels he owes the man a debt. And he has his own reputation to think about. He wants the name of the killer. The neighbour? Bazza Mackenzie, a man who made his fortune supplying the city with class-A drugs. The man in his organisation charged with getting the job done? Ex D/C Paul Winter.

About the Author:
Graham Hurley is an award-winning TV documentary maker who now writes full time. He is married and has grown up children. He lived in Portsmouth for 20 years but now lives in Exmouth, Devon.
From AudioFile:
This is Hurley's ninth Portsmouth procedural featuring DI Joe Faraday and former DC Paul Winter. After finding the constraints of by-the-book police work too restricting, Winter has quit the force and is working as a private investigator. When a teenager's party in an upscale suburban neighborhood turns into a riot and two bodies are found in the aftermath, the cop and the P.I. find themselves on opposite sides of a nasty mess. Narrator Tim Pepper's deep, whispery baritone sounds darker and more ominous than the grime of Portsmouth. While the brooding sense of foreboding works for awhile, his tone rarely changes, and the reading becomes monotonous and leaden, adding little to Hurley's otherwise taut crime drama.
