"Dark Winter" by David Mark, is a debut novel and the first in a series! A British police procedural mystery set in Hull, a port city in North Eastern England, this series features a protagonist who has the character to see us through several books.... I only hope he does.
Aector McAvoy (Hector) is a transplanted Scot, a family man with a pregnant wife and a young son. He is larger than life, both in physical size and moral character. Blessed with a fine tuned acuity for noticing connections between events, he is excellent at his job.
The author, David Mark, though a debut novelist, is a seasoned journalist, so he is well versed in writing and does it superbly. Highly recommended!
I just finished this book and really enjoyed it. I loved McAvoy and his flaws. I would definitely read the next one in this series.
