About this listen
The best-selling William Shaw returns with a thrilling investigation in the unmissable new series.
You can run.
The two boys never fitted in. Seventeen, the worst age, nothing to do but smoke weed; at least they have each other. The day they speed off on a moped with a stolen mobile, they're ready to celebrate their luck at last. Until their victim comes looking for what's his - and ready to kill for it.
You can hide.
On the other side of Kent's wealth divide, DS Alexandra Cupidi faces the strangest murder investigation of her career. A severed limb, hidden inside a modern sculpture in Margate's Turner Contemporary. No one takes it seriously - not even the artwork's owners, celebrity dealers who act like they're above the law.
You can die.
But as Cupidi's case becomes ever more sinister, as she wrangles with police politics and personal dilemmas, she can't help worrying about those runaway boys. Seventeen, the same age as her own headstrong daughter. Alone, on the marshes, they're pawns in someone else's game. Two worlds are about to collide.
Kent and its social divisions are brilliantly captured in Deadland, a crime thriller that's as ingeniously unguessable as it is moving and powerful.

lived up to my expectations
although this is the second book of the Alexandra Cupidi series, for me it began with that hauntingly beautiful book "The Birdwatcher" which really sets the scene for the reader.
I highly recommend these books to anyone who appreciates both beautiful writing and a darned good tale

Boredom overwhelmed me.
I managed 38 chapters before giving up all hope that anything was going to happen. The first book in the Alex Cupidi series was much, much better. This one is tedious and dull, with some of the most stilted and unnatural dialogue one is ever likely to find.
