"Roll up! Roll up! To the third in the fabulously outrageous Dying Squad series where detective Joe Lazarus and his colleagues patrol both the living and the dead."
An impressively unique and provocative novel that balances on the razor-sharp wire between believable and unimaginable. The squad investigates a new drug called Spook which allows the living one chance to see the dead. I would most definitely recommend starting at beginning with this series as it doesn’t stay still, it’s constantly on the move and began with the fiercely inventive LoveReading Star Book, The Dying Squad. Second up, The Generation Killer took the baton and ran far far away. The Ungrateful Dead feels tighter, and more purposeful, and as I opened the pages I fell straight back into this double world. The plot has formed into a number of different strands that coil around each other until they form one cohesive mass. As always my mind sits in the gallery formed for the audience, eyes wide open and mouth agape. Author Adam Simcox is more than happy to tease thoughts, and throw your imagination one way and then the other. The Ungrateful Dead is a wild rollercoaster of a ride, and one I can highly recommend getting on.
The gripping third instalment in Adam Simcox's supernatural crime DYING SQUAD series.
A MISSING DETECTIVE
Detective Joe Lazarus is missing. The Dying Squad are on the case, but following reports of his sighting, signs suggest he may have fallen back into his criminal ways.
A DEATH IN A NIGHTCLUB
A new drug is taking the world by storm. Spook allows the living to see the dead, but its effects are often fatal. The Dying Squad's visit to a Berlin nightclub quickly turns their search into an entirely more sinister case.
TWO WORLDS COLLIDE
Because the invention of Spook has another purpose. One that's been decades in the planning. Two worlds are on a collision course - the living and the dead's - and the Dying Squad must summon all their investigatory cunning to stop a plot that could change people's (after)lives for ever.
