Summary

Argyle House, the most hated home on Cottle Street. A place where the town’s unwanted and despised are housed. Given the local hostility, it’s no surprise to anyone when a body is discovered in one of its flats.

Boyd wastes no time dispatching Minter and Okeke to investigate.

But it’s not long before the team realize that any one of the residents could have been the target for a trolling that went too far.

Obsessed with age!

Really enjoyed having the gang back to listen too even though it really is a sad one….. I wish the author would dial back the obsession with Bill and Charlotte’s ages and perceived ’old age’, it’s becoming a serious cause of irritation!!!

Maudlin tale

Not as good as the other books. I like a good back story to the characters but in this book it was more about the detectives than the theme of the story.
A bit disappointing.
