You think you know who to trust? You think you know the difference between good and evil? You're wrong....

A lesson you will never forget.

The body of the head teacher of an exclusive Devon school is found hanging from the rafters in the assembly hall. Hours earlier he'd received a package, and only he could understand the silent message it conveyed. It meant the end.

As Exeter suffers a rising count of gruesome deaths, troubled DS Imogen Grey and DS Adrian Miles must solve the case and make their city safe again. But as they're drawn into a network of corruption, lies and exploitation, every step brings them closer to grim secrets hidden at the heart of their community. And once they learn what's motivating this killer, will they truly want to stop him?

Smart. Gripping. Gruesome. This is a psychological crime thriller in a class of its own.

Warning: most definitely not for the faint hearted!

I have another copy of this sitting on the book mountain TBR!

This is going into the Occupational Bookring.

Picking it up from the Occupational Bookring.

Too gore to be really credible. Smart psychological thriller though with an ending open for a sequel.

On its way to Belgium. Enjoy !

OMG I never journalled it... so sorry Icila,
I think I forgot.

I have read this one in the Coronatime
The Teacher begins with a teacher receiving a package that somehow tells him that his fate is sealed. That night a man comes and forces him to hang himself in the school where he is found the next day. But our teacher had secrets, he liked young boys. Thus begins the reign of a serial killer who targets those with secrets. As the gruesome deaths pile up DS Imogen Grey and DS Adrian Miles must solve the case.
Some parts of the story do become a bit gruesome but I did not find that any of this turned me away from the story, instead I felt it made the story more real. The best part of this book to me was the strong plot and the serial killer himself. Not really the parts of the detectives.

This book and its companion from the Books in my WishList arrived last week... I am definitely keeping this one, as it seems quite interesting. :)

Currently reading it.

Ok, maybe it's not the right read for me at this time, but although I enjoyed the dynamics between the detective partners, I find that I am skipping pages and pages of descriptive acts of torture, rape, etc. I don't really need so many gruesome details, I get the picture.
So I give up, and will leave it half-way, and let's hope that its next reader is more appreciative.
As I said, the dynamics between the two main characters is fine, I really like Grey, and as I understand, this is the first in a series.

Sent as my replacement book for the Occupational Ring.

Taken from the Occupation Bookring. What have I let myself in for?

Well, it wasn’t what I expected from the blurb. It went into much darker depths.

Going into the Crime/ Mystery BookBox.
