His might also be his last.\n\nInverness, December 2015.\n\nThe streets are frozen, the days are short, and Constable Tyler Neish is entirely out of his depth.\nFresh out of training, Tyler is desperate to make a good impression. He wants to seem capable, commanding, and professional. Unfortunately, he’s mostly known for falling over in the snow and being terrified of his own shadow.\nBut when sixteen-year-old Laura Wilder goes missing, the job suddenly gets personal. To the weary brass at Burnett Road Police Station, Laura is just a low-risk repeat runaway who’ll be home by dinner time. To Tyler, she’s his best mate’s little sister, and he knows that something is wrong.\nOrdered to stay in his lane by the bureaucratic nightmare that is Chief Inspector “Snecky” Grant, and threatened with grisly dismemberment by the terrifying Detective Superintendent Hoon, Tyler must make a choice: follow orders and keep his job, or go rogue and save a life.\n\nFor Tyler, that isn't a choice at all.\nArmed only with a notebook, damp trousers, and a near total lack of common sense, the rookie constable plunges headlong into the freezing city to uncover the truth.\nBut in the Highlands of Scotland, the truth is like ice—slippery, dangerous, and liable to break if you push it too hard.\n\nFirst Among the Dead is a standalone prequel novella following the early adventures of fan favourite character DC Tyler Neish from the DCI Jack Logan series, and the perfect introduction to the world and characters of bestselling Scottish crime fiction author, JD Kirk.\n\nPLEASE NOTE: This is a novella of around 36,000 words, roughly half the length of an average DCI Logan full-length novel.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1912767945\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.1912767945.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Kirk, JD\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
