I recommend this book, JoffeAnother Andy Horton tale still unfinished business! Avenging
Dead Passage is a police procedural crime story where evidence is building that a previous investigationyears ago ruled the death of a politician, Dudley Goldsby, as suicide.
Now it appears that he may have been murdered, at least in the eyes of DI Andy Horton, Other colleagues, however, seem to have reasons for the case not to reopen, The daughter, Adele Goldsby, makes contact with DI Andy Horton and requests he meets her on the Isle of Wight ferry at a set time, While on the ferry, Adele is nowhere to be seen but he does meet an excolleague, Mike Danby, now in private security, Is this just a coincidence or a setup, considering Danby was a leading DI on the original Dudley Goldsby investigation

Five skeletons are found on Rat Island, one of them, more

recent than the others, and a second murder occurs to none other than the person who discovered them.
The connections are mounting and Rowson does a great job of building the plot and how the connections interrelate, Numerous characters seem to have hidden agendas and appear to be hiding information, The motivations of multiple suspects are well presented leaving us with a web of suspicion and a puzzle that Horton must solve,

I read this book at a request, as I wouldnt by choice read bookof a series as my introduction to a new author, The story plot was standalone but there were numerous references to background, events and characters in previous books, Thats not a problem and I did expect a certain amount of it, although in some places it works and others completely irrelevant or tiresome, I was confused around Hortons mothers disappearance in, as this thread is given life but taken nowhere, I understand this is a thread running through the series but it is irrelevant and uninteresting in this story, I felt it made the book structure very manufactured, where a series thread is provided tick and may be used to try and show some depth to the main character tick, none of which added any value.


There is a massive intent to portray a welldiscussed analysis of the crime scenarios between the investigating police officers, but this tended to become so detailed and extensive that it felt unnecessarily complex and I lost focus on the storyline.
During the brainstorming dialogue, I was amazed when they didnt suggest other obvious alternatives which I felt left holes in the plot,

I feel its a little bit unbelievable when a character devotes their life to seeking revenge for the wrongs done to a family member by sacrificing their own career, relationships and happiness to get close to the culprit and make taking revenge so abstruse.
Do the obvious thing and kill them yourself,

If you enjoy the series and the character, then this is another episode in the Andy Horton collection that Im sure you will enjoy, I wish to thank Pauline Rowson for providing me with a copy of her book in return for an honest review, A true rating would be,but I'm finding it hard to round up, Disappointing

After reading the previousbooks in this series, The Rat Island Murders was a disappipointment, Most of this book rehashes everything we know about Andy Horton, Over, and over, and over, He asks himself the same questions he has done for several books now, Will he ever have another date with Gayle Will he ever make any progress in finding what happened to his mother I am not if I care anymore! This book is just filler.
