But as similarities between the two cases grow, could it be that Jack caught the wrong man all those years ago?

The removal of the victim’s eyes and the Latin inscription carved into the chest is the chilling calling card of the ‘soul jacker’: a cold-blooded murderer who struck close to Michael once before, 25 years ago. Now the long-buried case is being reopened, and Michael is determined to use his inside knowledge to finally bring the killer to justice.

When the bloody remains of a missing gamekeeper’s dog are discovered on the moors, it soon becomes clear to DCI Harry Grimm and his team that this was no wild animal attack.

Still enjoying the characters.
I'm still enjoying the characters and their development. The stories are interesting and varied but I just get so annoyed with the narrator reading the wrong words. It's not just the little things like bought instead of brought but 1 of the characters had a complete name change. I like his voice and accents but I am used to a higher level of accuracy that other narrator's bring. I'm looking forward to the next book but might just avoid the audiobook.

From a Shameful US state riddled with the
cancer of puppy mills- I was scared to listen to this volume. BUT no gory detailing of the physical tortures by the 21st century millers.... so I could relax and listen... another good book.
and mention of the SHEEP here makes me
hopeful of full explanation of 21st century
sheep rustlers.

the author is doing a better and better job and developing different characters why still weaving and interesting plot and premise of good versus evil something new to consider that you don't always see in mystery stories an original plot line... the narrator does a good job but it's very difficult to differentiate the different voices for all the characters

Grimm’’s Adventures just keep getting better!
I really loved this addition to the DCI Grimm series, Within a few minutes of reading or audio listening you are transported deep in to the Dales, uncovering mysteries with some really lovable characters. I now simply have to visit the place, try some of the scenic walks, sample the local beer and food…cake and cheese though? Surely not!😂
