This book was a British crime novel set in the Peak District, and featuring DI Ben Cooper. The crime mystery itself was good. A lorry driver is lured down a country lane leading to a tiny hamlet, where it gets wedged under a railway bridge. He is then brutally murdered. But was an accident or was it on purpose? I like the plot and I wanted to keep reading to find out the answers.
On the minus side, I found the minutiae of details about roads, tracks etc quite boring  and mostly irrelevant. Maybe they would’ve meant more if I lived in the Peak District. I also found the atmosphere of the book bleak and rather depressing. In addition, I hadn’t realised this was #15 in a series and I felt I was missing quite a lot of backstory on the lead characters and didn’t warm to them. For all these reasons, I’m giving this book 4
