Book Review Poop Goes The Weasel by M.J. Arlidge

 
Title: Poop Goes The Weasel  

Author: M.J. Arlidge
Stars: 5 out of 5
Review:

If you are a fan of nitty gritty British Police murder mysteries that do not pull 

any punches this is the book for you. The maincharacter Detective Inspector 

(DI) Helen Grace is hard as nails and takes no prisoners in her pursuit of the guilty. 

That said she has some skeletons in her own closet that she would not like to see the 

light of day. A thoroughly riveting must read for any British mystery aficionado.
 This story revolves around a serial killer in Southampton England and 
is told in short paragraphs that details what each character is doing at
 that moment in the story.
I would expect this character to be turned into an exceptional 

television series as only the British can do so well.

I rated this book five stars. It is also a page turner, as I have said 
once before in a prior review, one you just don't want to put down even 
though you should do something else like turn the light off and go to 
sleep.
 
I received this book as an ARC from Netgalley for my unbiased review.
 
Thanks Frank for this review.

Synpsis:

DI Helen Grace returns in Pop Goes the Weasel, the electrifying new thriller from 

M. J. Arlidge.

 The body of a middle-aged man is discovered in Southampton's red-light 
district - horrifically mutilated, with his heart removed.

Hours later - and barely cold - the heart arrives with his wife and children by courier.

A pattern emerges when another male victim is found dead and eviscerated,

 his heart delivered soon afterwards.

The media call it Jack the Ripper in reverse; revenge against the men who 
lead sordid double lives visiting prostitutes. For Grace, only one thing
 is certain: there's a vicious serial-killer at large who must be halted
 at all costs
