Already Dead Wydawca: William Morrow & Company Opis produktu Already Dead by Stephen Booth opens on a summer of endless rain in the Peak District — a crime that refuses to wash away. A body is found in shallow water, rivers are swollen, roads flooded and forensic work stymied. With Detective Cooper officially on extended leave after an arson attack, Detective Fry is a reluctant temporary replacement. Together the makeshift Derbyshire CID team must track a car seen only as a dark outline in the rain, while loyalties among officers are stretched to breaking point. This atmospheric crime novel and mystery novel blends procedural detail with moral tension. Stephen Booth’s slow-building thriller captures the sodden landscapes of northern England and the claustrophobic pressure of a small police force trying to do its job when everything — weather, evidence, and trust — conspires against them. Who will enjoy Already Dead? Fans of British crime fiction, detective stories, and gritty police procedurals will be drawn to its authentic Derbyshire setting and complex characters. If you search for a thriller set in the Peak District, a Derbyshire detective novel, or an English book with atmosphere and moral ambiguity, this is for you. Read Already Dead for a taut, character-driven mystery that prioritizes mood and motive over cheap shocks. Stephen Booth delivers a detective story that lingers long after the rain stops — perfect for readers of crime fiction and classic mystery novels who want depth, setting, and suspense.
