About
A dark slice of Cardiff crime for fans of TONY PARSONS, JAMES OSWALD and LUCA VESTE. There isn't always a welcome in the valleys . . .
Bombs detonate in a busy souk, causing massive devastation.
An explosion rips apart a mosque, killing and injuring those inside.
But this isn't the Middle East - this is Cardiff . . .
In a city where tensions are already running high, DC Will MacReady and his colleagues begin the desperate hunt for the attacker. If they knew the 'why', then surely they can find the 'who'? But that isn't so easy, and time is fast running out . . .
MacReady is still trying to prove himself after the horrific events of the previous year, which left his sergeant injured and his job in jeopardy, so he feels sidelined when he's asked to investigate a vicious knife attack on a young woman.
But all is not as it seems with his new case, and soon MacReady must put everything on the line in order to do what is right. Mike Thomas was born in Wales in 1971. For more than two decades he served in the police, working some of Cardiff's busiest neighbourhoods. He left the force in 2015 to write full time.
Mike has previously had two novels published and was longlisted for the Wales Book of the Year and was on the list of Waterstones 'New Voices'. His second novel, Ugly Bus, is currently in development for a six part series with the BBC.
He lives in the wilds of Portugal with his wife, children and a senile dog who enjoys eating furniture. DC Will MacReady is back with another slice of Cardiff crime, for fans of Stuart MacBride, Tony Parsons, James Oswald and Luca Veste. This is an 'of-the-moment' procedural with the focus on domestic terrorism Mike Thomas is an ex-police officer with over 20 years experience This is a gritty, realistic police procedural and perfect for readers of Luca Veste or Stuart MacBride You can't help but to stick with him through the grit and thrills of this high octane thriller A cracking yarn with a breakneck plot and great characters. It will have the Cardiff tourist board reaching for the smelling salts. Wales explodes in a fireball of hate and terror. Like real life on crack. If you like your noir ripped from the pages of the news, this is for you. Blood on the floor, hate in the air - near the knuckle crime fiction Unforgiveable is a heart-thumping thriller. Mike Thomas has crafted a gripping tale that brims with authenticity and tension Totally believable and engrossing. Mike Thomas is a genuine and authentic voice in the world of Brit grit. Acomplex, contemporary and disturbing crime novel, in which there are no easy answers The narration is edgy and feels staggeringly authentic, so too are the observations of the resulting carnage at specific locations where herds of people gather. Add to this the false sense of relief when everyone believes the danger has passed, and the engineer's indifference as they appreciate their handiwork, and you have all the ingredients of a riveting read . . . Unforgivable has a solid plot where ordinary people face extreme scenes that no one could have prepared for . . . It's well written, unputdownable and with a gripping storyline that doesn't pull its punches. It's also a tough read at times but a relevant one that has left me wanting more! Highly recommended by me! If you love a well-written crime novel with a strong element of police procedural then you will have to add this to your to be read pile! Unforgivable totally lived up to all of my expectations with Thomas proving that this is one hell of a crime series!Unforgivable is a fantastic, high-adrenaline, close-to-the-bone read and the DC MacReady books are now firmly placed on my list of favourite and highly recommended detective series This taut, pacy, atmospheric account of events over five hectic days is as engaging and convincing as has become usual for this author. No doubt his police background is what makes him sound so in control of his material, but he is not content just
