THE PROFESSOR (Detective Jason Smith #33) by Stewart Giles

From bestselling author: Stewart Giles comes another brilliant addition to the Detective Jason Smith.
How do you catch a killer when the law is on their side?
Smith is brought back from a self imposed hiatus from work when a blast from the past comes to his attention.
His old law professor has confessed to the murders of two of his students.
Smith smells a rat. And when it becomes apparent that the professor has an alibi for both murders, he finds himself in the middle of a deadly game.
This isn’t about how murders are solved and the people responsible are punished, this is much more disturbing.
This is about the law, and if Smith is to beat the most devious killer he’s ever encountered, he’s going to have to cross a line he never imagined he’d have to cross.
The Professor is going to make Smith wish he’d stayed at home.

Stewart Giles – Author Bio
After reading English at 3 Universities and graduating from none of them, I set off travelling around the world with my wife, Ann, finally settling in South Africa, where we still live.
In 2014 Ann dropped a rather large speaker on my head and I came up with the idea for a detective series. DS Jason Smith was born. Smith, the first in the series was finished a few months later.
3 years and 8 DS Smith books later, Joffe Books wondered if I would be interested in working with them. As a self-published author, I agreed. However, we decided on a new series – the DC Harriet Taylor: Cornwall series.
The Beekeeper was published and soon hit the number one spot in Australia. The second in the series, The Perfect Murder did just as well.
I continued to self-publish the Smith series and Unworthy hit the shelves in 2018 with amazing results. I therefore made the decision to self-publish The Backpacker which is book 3 in the Detective Harriet Taylor series which was published in July 2018.
After The Backpacker I had an idea for a totally new start to a series – a collaboration between the Smith and Harriet thrillers and The Enigma was born. It brought together the broody, enigmatic Jason Smith and the more level-headed Harriet Taylor.
The Miranda trilogy is something totally different. A psychological thriller trilogy. It is a real departure from anything else I’ve written before.
The Detective Jason Smith series continues to grow. I also have another series featuring an Irish detective who relocated to Guernsey, the Detective Liam O’Reilly series. There are also 3 stand alone novels.

My Review How is this book 33, and yet a fresh as a daisy story wise. Our old faithful are there, even when they aren’t actually investigating as the main copper, they are intrinsically linked to the victim, and it unfolds beautifully. Our Ds smells a rat, he’s been round the block a bit, and sees how this suspect has them all on their toes, due to knowing the law and somehow has it on his side. The puzzling case draws our Smith is as his time off in the band isn’t going that well, and he’s got hunches. Watch this tale unfold in a fast paced thriller that will twist and turn you around so many times. How does Stewart Giles manage to leave the reader breathless, tense and eager to turn a page every time? I have no idea, but these need to be made into series on tv. He’s a genuis!!
