We follow Freeman and his team as they interview witnesses, suspects, and friends of the victim. Along with his liberal use of British colloquialisms, he enriches the flavour of the tale. His prose brings the investigation to life. I think Gus Freeman will be as appealing as The Phoenix. I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a solid mystery.” Elizabeth.

I already know that I will be reading all of this series" Jenna. “Gus Freeman is a multi-dimensional character who is not only called on to help solve a crime, but also deal with his personal issues.
