The story is interesting, but the grammatical errors and transitioning are hard to overlook. I don't know if it is just the kindle edition, but a new paragraph will start in the middle of a sentence, and/or character dialogue will change from one to the other without starting a new paragraph. It is very frustrating.
The transitions from place to place are confusing, too. One minute character 1 is in the morgue, then the next he is in a store - no explanation. The same goes for changing character perspectives in completely different locations. No chapter change; just a new paragraph without again explanation or transition. I find myself rereading pages numerous times because of the poor writing. I don't know if anyone else has had this same issue, but I would strongly suggest that the publisher, editor, or whoever seriously fix the grammatical structuring of the book.
Story line good!

Shifting Skin – a nerveracking serialkiller plot with a shocking twist DI Spicer series book 2 DI Spicer series book 2 eBook Chris Simms Reviews

This is an interesting and engaging tale which is marred somewhat by the jumping from place to place, character to character or time to time with nothing by way of typeset differences, chapter numbers or even just separate paragraphs to help the reader keep things straight. Good book though, and worth the occasional hiccup in continuity. This review may make better sense if you read the book. I recommend it.

Edited
I have often been labeled a punctuation perfectionist or even a "Grammar Nazi" , so please excuse me for being a continuity critic!
I really don't like to say negative things about books because I cannot write. But, in all honesty, I cannot recommend this book. It is disjounted, throughout the book it flips from one character situation to another with no separation between, such as something to let you know they are changing to another charaters narative. In one place it is describing the autopsy of the third victim and in the next paragraph it is describing a waiter serving a couple on a terrace and they see a bloated body. If you can read a part of this book before you buy, I would suggest doing so first. At the end I think it tries to be turned into a philosophical debate but it fell short. Some may think it is fine, but this is just my opinion.
Have read many free detective stories recently (mostly free) and this was one of the best. Just the right number of characters, enough suspects, and a few good twists. I'm old fashioned enough to think police stories should end with the demise of the baddies and the goody cop gets his man or woman.
I also liked the points raised by the author regarding working with homosexuals and even more the fact that we have become so superficial in the West. Whether or not this is the fault of the media wasn't delved into but at least the topic was raised. I also liked the descriptions of scenes in Manchester, thought there was far more to this novel than the usual crime novels.
This is the second book I have read by this author. Jolly good read - to use the English vernacular. I enjoyed reading a book that is written with the everyday colloquial language we know as British English. I am thankful that I use a so that I can quickly look up the myriad of unknown words
The author does a very good job of providing descriptions that are interesting without overdoing it. This could be a great British detective story on BBC that they could export to us - or better yet, we should grab the rights ans make the series here on a minor cable channel.

I also enjoyed the characters a great deal. This is a series well worth reading.
A master storyteller, Chris Simms, approaches this story from several different perspectives. The main character being the Detective in charge of the case in a small English town. His new partner has a direct connection with the case from one direction, his girl friend's perspective is a less direct one, her co-worker, and her husband are yet again another angle and so on. So many people connected from so many different points of view make for a very interesting story. A definite read!
I liked it, there were a couple interesting twists. There were some formatting issues though; instead of being separated by different paragraphs, often two people would speak in the same paragraph. I had to re-read many to figure out who actually said what. Another issue was a lack of demarcation. It would go straight from one scene, or viewpoint, to another person or scene with no warning that you were in for a change. It's not that irritating, except when you're really into what's going on, and suddenly it's gone. It kind of feels like you were suddenly spirited from Kansas to Oz, without the "benefit" of a magic tornado to give you warning you were going somewhere different.
A very good story that will keep you guessing who the killer might be. I did learn a lot of English English terms I had never heard before. There are a lot of complaints about scenarios changing from one paragraph to the next which causes you to go back to the the previous paragraph to get reoriented. This did not bother me too much because I ran into the same situation in the last book I read and have run into this before. I think that when a book is converted to an ebook certain specific separators are getting lost or maybe it is just lousy proofreading. Despite this, the book was still an excellent read.
