Publisher's Summary
Rock climbers can’t afford to make careless mistakes. But Detective Inspector Nick Dixon’s former climbing partner, Jake Fayter, died doing just that. Or so it seems. Dixon suspects foul play, but his only leads are unreliable accounts of something odd happening in Cheddar Gorge seconds before Jake fell.
The more Dixon learns about Jake’s life, the more he realises that Jake hadn’t been quite the man he remembered...and a lot of people could have wanted him dead. Once Dixon gets too close to the truth, those people will emerge from the shadows and kill to protect their secrets.
As the body count rises, Dixon bends the rules to breaking point to lure out a killer and unravel a conspiracy of silence that will rock the sleepy town of Burnham-on-Sea to its core.
As the Crow Flies is the electrifying first novel in the DI Nick Dixon Crime Series.
Revised edition: This edition of As the Crow Flies includes editorial revisions.
What the critics say
“Damien Boyd has written a super first book around his character of Nick Dixon. The plot is genuine, fast-paced and also contains one or two twists that the reader does not see coming. Nick is a completely believable and ‘real’ character, as are all the other members of the cast”—bestsellingcrimethrillers
“The story grabs your interest right from the beginning. It doesn’t let go until the surprise ending. As the Crow Flies moves along at a pace that keeps you stimulated. The characters are realistic and believable”—Kathryn’s Shelf Full of Books
“Boyd manages to pack a lot in and as a result it is quite fast-paced. There is a lot of plot covered, with various different criminal activities involved in the storyline. The book retains the tradition of British crime novels and we have a new enjoyable police detective series here”—The Crime Scene
