Summary

Just when he thought he was out....

Burdened by guilt over the trauma recently inflicted on his friends and colleagues, former-Detective Chief Inspector Jack Logan has spent the past nine months living in self-imposed exile.

When a mother and her young daughter are the victims of a double murder staged to look like suicide, Logan is dragged back to help hunt down and catch a brutal, calculating killer.

But the world has moved on without him. To do what needs to be done, Logan must first find his place among old friends and new enemies before the killer strikes again, and a whole Highland community tears itself apart.

Maybe early retirement wasn't such a bad idea, after all....

The Big Man Upstairs is the seventh novel in the internationally best-selling DCI Jack Logan Scottish crime fiction series, and perfect for fans of Ian Rankin, Val McDermid, and Stuart MacBride.

Brilliant writing , great formula keep them coming .

It is rare that a novel can push you through so many emotions . Nail biting one minute , laugh out loud moments too , gripping stuff again . I love all the characters who are becoming like old friends. Not forgetting the brilliant narrator who brings these characters
to life . Thank you again to you both

A little disappointed

I found the story line week in this novel, I have listened to quite a few of J.D Kirk books and have so far given them top reviews. Still as they say, “ you can’t win them all”,

Another epic book!

I love these series of books! This book provided more of a light reprieve after the last one which was very dark (but brilliant nonetheless). The narrator makes a pure joy to listen to as well.

The series is brilliant

All of the DCI Jack Logan books are excellent.
The stories are complex and believable with enough twists to keep you guessing.
Angus King is superb and captures the characters in glorious richness.
I’m now off to buy the next one in the series!
