Hazel (2934 KP) rated Echo of the Dead (DSI William Lorimer #19) in Books

Apr 10, 2022

This is another entertaining outing for DSI Lorimer and whilst this is the 19th in the series, it can easily be read as a standalone.

Echo of the Dead if set in the Scottish Highlands and Alex Gray does an excellent job of 'selling' the area to the reader despite the darkness of the story.

Lorimer is on a break with his friend, Daniel, when they stumble upon a body. A short time later, another body is found and Lorimer returns with his Team to investigate. Are these connected and could they be related to an historical massacre?

With a great cast of characters, this is an intriguing mystery with twists and is a great edition to the series and one that I would recommend to lovers of this genre.

Thank you to Little, Brown Book Group and NetGalley for my copy in return for an honest, unbiased and unedited review.

Beautiful location

Lots of twists

A cool icy thriller

A weird but compelling thriller set in a small town near the Artic circle. After a body is found could the town have its first ever murder? A strong cast line up, against a beautiful scenic backdrop and an often bizarre story that will have you on the edge of your seat.

Dean (6927 KP) rated Starship Troopers 2: Hero of the Federation (2004) in Movies

Jun 13, 2018

A run of the mill low budget straight to DVD sequel. Considering the budget it isn't really bad but it's not good either. It borrows a lot of ideas from other films bit of a mix of Aliens, The Thing, Body snatchers. For a film that has a made for TV feel about it could have been a lot worse.
