Wind Up Dead by Sam Tobin in the third book in the excellent Manchester Underworld series and Craig Malton is back with a bang. I found this book Sam's best so far in this series and it was full of excellent twists and turns throughout that will have you sitting on the edge of your seat. Once i opened my kindle and started to read it, I found it hard to put down....which made it a very enjoyable read.

I highly recommend this series...........it's one of the best out there if you love gangland gangsters book........thats so addictive.

Big Thank you to Netgalley and Hodder and Stoughton for the ARC.

ONE BOY DEAD. Craid Malton rules Manchester, solving crimes for criminals and flying under the police radar. When he's called to a murder scene before the cops can get their hand on it, he senses something is wrong. Someone is trying to make Zak Alquist's murder look like something else.

ONE BOY MISSING. Lesha's son was murdered years ago, so when a local boy goes missing, she feels the sting only a bereaved mother can. But this is more than just a teenage runaway. On the missing boy;s phone is a photo of him - and murder victim Zak Alsuist.

A DARK CONSPIRACY. Can Lesha and Malton uncover the rot at the heart of the city and cut it out before another life is taken?

The characters are well developed but Craig's character is complex. I seem to have missed out on the second book in this series, so I'll have to rectify that soon. This is a well written and plotted gangland thriller. Craig Malton rules Manchester's underworld, There were parts when I was on the edge of my seat. filled with twists and suspense, I did not want to put this gripping and fast-paced read down.

I would like to thank #NetGalley #HodderStoughton and the author #SamTobin for my ARC of #WindUpDead in exchange for an honest review.

This is the 3rd book in the series, and for me, the best so far, the books just keep getting better and better.
I love the characters of Malton and Dean,Malton is a hardened gangster with a level of kindness within him,and Dean has the kindness but loves the world his working in with his boss.
I wasn't ready for this book to end at all, but it has left the reader in no doubt that there will be a follow on which can't come quick enough for me.If your a lover of gangland thrillers this authors books are a must.A real pacy page turner.

Thanks to netgalley and the publisher for an arc of this title.. craig malton rules the manchester underworld, solving crimes no one else can, his way.. when he is tipped of to get to a murder scene before the police, something isnt right!! But what??
Leeshas son was murdered many years ago, and when a local boy goes missing, a picture on his phone could hold the answer. Is it connected?
Can leesha and malton manage to sort the problem before more blood is shed? I really enjoyed this, it was gritty, action packed, i was drawn into the underworld characters. Highley recommend

A face paced, action filled read made all the more enjoyable due to being familiar with the the city.. Could be considered similar to other books using Manchester as a back drop, but still one to read if you enjoy this kind of book.
