Nearly Dead

My review -
Charlie
McGee, a drug gang boss, is throwing his weight about at the beginning of this
gripping and gruesome novel. He has got where he is by sheer ruthlessness and
by threatening a dreadful death to those who defy him – and to their loved ones.
He’s not the only kingpin in the city, as he is shortly to discover. DI Alec
Ramsey is on the trail after a body is found. His team soon uncover more than a
drug ring.
This
is my first taste of Conrad Jones’s work and, as this is a prequel, it is leading
me on to the first in the Alec Ramsey series. I don’t think I shall be long
following the trail! The story is horrific enough for any blood-and-guts
reader, with intricate plotting and some horrific detail! It’s an excellent
idea to have a prequel like this as it has set up the first in the series very
well. Seriously readable stuff.
