False Witness - John Carson

 False Witness - John Carson

Pub. Date: April 5, 2026

She read

Seven years ago, there was a series of killings by someone given the moniker “The Embalmer,” followed by his disappearance. Now, he has resurfaced, and DCI Liam Brodie is called to Fife to assist in the investigation. As clues emerge, it appears that he may not have been as silent as initially suspected, potentially adopting a new modus operandi for his killings. As Liam delves deeper into the case, his life is in danger.

This is the second installment in the Liam Brodie series; I have read both. While it can be enjoyed as a standalone, readers familiar with the prior book will have some background and insights into Liam’s character and some of the other characters.

This is a fast paced mystery/thriller. On the dark side, there are twists and red herrings. Fans of mysteries, solid  police procedurals, Scottish locations, and thrillers will enjoy this read. 

Thanks to @NetGalley and @TheBoldBookClub for the DRC.
