This story is bang up to date when you consider all the stabbing that are occurring on our streets at the moment. Gang culture at its worse. Please don't let me die was the youths final words but he did die and there was little the off-duty paramedic could do to save him. A great police procedural crime thriller. it is the third in a series but the first I have read and it worked well as a stand-alone. Oops! I missed out book two. I thought there were a few unexplained items in this book and that would be why.
Never mind because Gallowstree Lane was still an entertaining book in its own right. The characters are excellent, especially Sarah who constantly struggles to play by the rules in a police force which unfortunately bends them all the time. She still has to look away when information is deliberately buried or there are occasions of police brutality. I wonder if this was a reason for Kate London to have left the force herself!
