Resumen del Editor

A breathtaking, twisty adventure, A Place to Bury Strangers is the second Atticus Priest mystery.

A dog walker finds a human bone on lonely Salisbury Plain. DCI Mackenzie Jones investigates the grisly discovery but cannot explain how it ended up there. She contacts disgraced ex-detective Atticus Priest and the two of them trace the bone to a graveyard in the nearby village of Imber. But the village was abandoned after it was purchased by the Ministry of Defence to train the army, so why have bodies been buried in the graveyard since the church was closed?

At the same time, Atticus is approached by a single dad who needs his help to track down his missing daughter. Atticus takes on the case and finds himself battling a London gang who are selling their drugs in Salisbury and a host of witnesses who don't seem to be telling him the truth.

Atticus and Mack deal with the fiendishly complex case and unpick a conspiracy that cuts to the heart of the English establishment - while dealing with their own feelings for one another.

A whodunnit at its finest

Really enjoyed the accuracy of police procedures and crime scene forensics. When an author gets those right, it allows a knowledgeable reader to concentrate on the characters, plot and setting. The investigator, Atticus Priest is getting better developed from the first book to this one as is his love interest DCI Jones. Can’t wait for the next one in the series and I’ll probably pick up The book about what if Chernobyl was not an accident.

Really good series

I have enjoyed the books in this series and can’t wait for the next one.

This Should Be A Television Series

I listened to all three books in a row. This should be a television series!!

Kept My Attention

I think this one was better than book 1. Great suspense, ready for 3.

Atticus

Great listen great characters hoping for another soon. Lots of humor but serious too enjoy

Chills

Creepy, evil, villains. Very suspenseful. Hope it doesn't take too long for the next!

Ready for the next one…

…NOW!!! What an amazing story and mystery ! Truly was “unputdownable!!!” I am so bummed that I must wait. Atticus is great character— I highly recommend this read ( or listen). Truly wish I had the next in the series to begin tonight! Simon Vance is wonderful too! I love it when the voice(s) perfectly match the character being formed in the listener’s head.

I will be ready when the next book drops!

Wow!!!

I was a little wary about this author with so few reviews, but I read the reviews and they lead me to take a chance!

Mark Dawson is a wonderful writer, his characters are well rounded and developed, complete with gifts and an abundance of flaws, and yes some are depraved animals. Mr Dawson brings everyone out so well by the time you get to this 2nd book in the series you really “know” them. I absolutely love this series, and this book is even better than the first (hard to believe because I loved book 1).

Use your credit, deal with traffic or whatever your challenge for the day is … and enjoy!!

Much better than book 1

The plot moves quickly. The characters are interesting. Simon Vance is a fabulous narrator. I really hesitated buying this book because The House in the Woods (Book 1) really dragged. This book is far better edited.

First rate!!

I am hooked on Atticus Priest and wish that #3 was already written. Full of twists and surprises but nothing that doesn’t fit reasonably into the story. Wonderful characters plus the ever-perfect Simon Vance.
