Book Review: Death Warning

 Title: Death Warning

Author: Andrew Barrett    

Publisher: The Ink Foundry
Publication Date: April 7, 2023

Rating: 4 out of 5

The latest Eddie Collins thriller starts with a bang: a body stabbed to death in a Yorkshire alleyway. Then within minutes there's another body. Suicide this time. Are they connected? Is it really suicide? As the bodies build up, Barrett takes us on a compelling and twisting journey to climax. Along the way, we meet a new character, Detective Sergeant Regan Parker and a new version of Collins: empathetic Eddie. For the first time, we see a softer Eddie, one who is willing to break the rules, not just for himself, but to help a grieving mother. I am not sure I like or believe this new Eddie. But we all grow or devolve in character. Definitely worth a read, if only to see Eddie behave more like a normal human.

Many thanks to the author. I received an advanced reader copy of this book in return for an honest review.
