Detective Chief Inspector Harry Grimm is forced to take leave from Bristol’s Major Investigations Team when his boss, tired of Harry chasing the ghost of his murderous father, sends him north on secondment. Dysmorphia, Him Indoors, My Brother’s Keeper, Yellow, Welcome To Leathermill, The Raven, The Cleaner, Zombies Run!, Sunday Best. At first, his secondment to the bucolic countryside populated by farmers and tourists seems like the perfect place to go stir crazy, but then a teen goes missing, and soon enough there's a body by a lake and despite his new Superindendent's admonishments to not disrupt the idyl of the dales, as if his IED scarred face wasn't enough to do the job proper like, Harry just has to roll up his sleeves and do the job. Harry is investigating the said murder—a snuff film—wherein the presumed suspect, the victim’s husband, Daryl vanishes before another murder report. Harry is juggling the homicide investigation with his own long-estranged father—who, decades earlier, killed Harry’s mother and apparently injured his imprisoned sibling Ben—who has since reached out and gives him an unwanted danger warning. Harry must also be wary because shortly thereafter, two males start watching his house.

The settings are beautifully described by the author, visualisation taking its place in your head even to speeding down winding steep narrow roads, and that feeling of the need to hold on tight and close your eyes as your heart rate rises rapidly to the sound of screeching tyres. This year marks the second visit to Bury for the Grimm Up North team who set up the festival last year in response to extraordinary circumstances faced by their friend Steve Grimmett (Grim Reaper) who was in urgent need of funds to raise thousands of pounds for life – saving surgery in South America.

I loved the immediate connection that Jim and Grimm had. A proper double act name and a proper instant bromance.
