This is already the 10th book in the series, and it just keeps on getting better. The reader is engaged from beginning to end, and kept scared throughout! Hope there is a next one in the series!

I am addicted to T.F. Muir. Using the format of a police procedural he continues to write novels which are the very best of Scottish Noir. Full of suspense and unexpected twists and turns, the quality of writing is exceptional in this series. DCI Andy Gilchrist and DS Jessie Janes are extraordinary characters, never quite following the rules in their pursuit of justice. The crime scenes are searing images of blood-soaked horror and the investigations are intense and intriguing.
The plot here is complex and authentic with a serial killer every bit as dark and deadly as Hannibal Lecter.

A gruesome gritty intelligent police drama with plenty of unsettling murders for the team to investigate in various Scottish locations. Plenty of suspense and drama to keep the reader entertained throughout.

When DCI Andy Gilchrist and his DS Jessie Janes are called to investigate the brutal murder of a pensioner crucified in her own home with her tongue removed they quickly find themselves on the hunt for a serial killer. As more victims are discovered, their investigation leads them to believe the perpetrator is someone from DCI Gilchrist’s past, and his worst fears are brought to the surface as he appears to be one of the killer’s targets, having put him in prison for murder, one he says he is innocent of. Can they stop the killer before it’s too late?

This is the first book I have read in this series and I really enjoyed it, plenty of twists and turns. The main characters are likeable and easy to warm to. It was really easy for me to pick up the story having not read any of the previous books.

Thank you for the pre-read of this one, I’ll definitely be reading the rest now and look forward to more!

A gripping story that kept on the edge till the end. It's not one for the faint of heart as it's quite detailed, gorey, and the killer is very cruel.
That said it's a well written thriller, I was glad to catch up with the characters and the solid plot kept me turning pages.
Highly recommended.
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine

The suspense builds at just the right pace as the story unfolds. Compulsive, gripping and horrifying! Will keep you on the edge of your seat!

Book no 10 in the series and another good addition to the ongoing series. It was nice to catch up with the cast of the series and another well written book.

This is book 10 in the DCI Gilchrist series, set in St Andrews. The team are struggling to find a serial killer who is a bit close to home for Gilchrist. It's well written and very descriptive, not for the squeamish but the plot is interesting. I really enjoy this series of books, full of suspense and twists, as well as interesting characters. Thanks to Net Galley for my ARC.

I really enjoyed this book, it was well written with well developed characters, an engaging and compelling storyline and well developed characters. It was a gripping read that was crammed full of suspense twists and unpredictability, enveloped with a fast pace and tension galore. I will definitely be looking for more from this author.

I love this series that features DCI Andy Gilchrist and his team and The Murder List is on another level. Set in Scotland this is Scottish Noir on speed. Horrific and gruesome murders and a brilliant police procedural. Packed to the rafters with tension and suspense and a climax that had me holding my breath. This series is hard boiled scottish crime and this author does not pull any punches. A series that always leaves you wanting more. So highly recommended.
Many thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for the ARC in return for giving an honest review.

I really enjoy the characters in this series, in particular Jessie. The team are faced with a bizarre string of murders and a pushy new boss with an interesting reaction to both.

A horrifying and sickening sequence of murders brings St Andrews based detective DCI Andy Gilchrist back to work from sick leave. It seems there is a revengeful murder list and it's entirely possible that Gilchrist's name will be on it. Detective Superintendent Rommie Frazier takes charge of the team investigating the crimes and he's a very different officer to Gilchrist.

This is a well written mystery/thriller with a well thought out fast paced plot to keep your attention glued. There are plenty of twists and turns, some of which are terrifyingly callous. This is a challenging and tricky case as the perpetrator seems extremely meticulous and you feel the teams frustration.

The characterisation is good especially of Gilchrist as the author makes him feel real. He is driven, hard working, maybe a bit obsessive with cases but clearly has a good relationship with his team as there is lovely, entertaining banter between them. There's a good blend of personal with the case which fleshes characters out. The portrayal of Rommie Frazier is good although he's not especially likeable. He's a very ambitious career driven officer and you definitely sense the crackling tension and animosity between him and Gilchrist.

There are some weird scenes and oddball characters encountered along the way with the whole thing building well. Some aspects are not entirely unexpected but you still gasp at the audacity. There are some very good descriptions in the finale which add to the drama.

I certainly want to read more Andy Gilchrist and I love the St Andrews location.

With thanks to NetGalley and especially to Little, Brown Book Group/Constable for the much appreciated arc in return for an honest review.

Love this author and he never fails to deliver. The story was very intricate and exceptionally well thought out. Just when you thought Andy Gilchrist had cracked the case another twist came along. I found it very engaging, easy to read and such a cracking plot. What more do you need?

DCI Andy Gilchrist investigates a spate of brutal murders, when he figures out what connects the victims he realises he may be next on the list. A tense thriller.

Another author who I stumbled upon after being given a Kindle and as soon as The Murder List came up, it was a must read.
Didn’t disappoint, but then again, it wasn’t expected to.
Bounces along nicely and I read it over the course of a couple of days.
If you are not familiar with the author, worth checking out, as is this book.
