I’m fully invested in this Whity-based crime series now, featuring DCI Frank Black and DI Gerry Carver. Each one (so far) explores a case featuring an old body – the forgotten bodies of the series name. Frank fights hard to do what’s right by each one.
In this case, the body of a young boy is found inside a fridge that’s been flung into water. The investigation shows he had autism (which is relevant, as so does Gerry), and was presumed to have fallen from a cliff at height.
As usual for this series, we also follow some viewpoints of people who are potentially mixed up in the case, or have their own sad stories to tell.
It’s a recipe that works well. Once again, I enjoyed the police team working so well together (competence is great, not boring), and the relationship between Frank and Gerry growing. It was fun to get more insights into her relationship with her boyfriend, too.
The author landed the ending as per usual – and so I’ll be back for more.
