THE FIRST DI JIMMY BLISS NOVEL
First published in 2017. Republished in February 2022.
When two retired police officers are murdered shortly after human remains are discovered in woodland, a connection between the three events leads to an investigation unlike any the city of Peterborough has seen before.
As DI Jimmy Bliss and his Major Crimes team delve deeper into the murders, evidence points towards the involvement of other officers. And when he and his colleagues receive targeted warnings, Bliss has to decide whether those responsible might be too powerful and too dangerous to pursue.
Will Bliss walk away in order to keep his career intact, or will he fight no matter what the cost?
And is the killer closer to home than any of them could have imagined?
What readers have to say about the author and his work:
"The author is hugely talented and ranks, in my opinion, with the likes of Peter James and Val McDermid." Maggie James - bestselling author
"Just a word of warning - prepare to be in tears, on the edge of your seat and gobsmacked in equal measure. A triumph!" Liz Mistry - bestselling author
"Thought this story utterly fantastic. Kept me hooked until the last word! The best book I have read for a long while. "
"Simply, a great read. Fans of Michael Connelly and Mark Billingham will enjoy this."
"Bliss is one of the most authentic detectives I've come across in a long time."
"Forder is a talented author, who lent authenticity to every word that was written."
"I could see Bliss’ character easily transferring to the small screen in a way that would easily equal Robert Galbraith's (AKA JK Rowling) troubled detective Strike in The Cuckoo’s Calling."
"Thought this story utterly fantastic. Kept me hooked until the last word! The best book I have read for a long while."
"Fans of Michael Connelly's Detective Harry Bosch are going to love this series!"
