Good crime thriller well written. During these strange times during pandemic a gripping story to take you on a good journey. As always the author leaves me thinking what then happens to the characters a sequel maybe an option.

The Nick Dixon series of books are fantastic. Each one, in my opinion, every bit as good as the last. It is easy to engage with Nick Dixon's character. If you enjoy the likes of Val McDermid , Leigh Rusell and Stuart McBride, you'll love this book

Just finished this and by was I shocked when I saw who was behind the killings.

I loved the way the characters new and old was working together and was surprised how easy DI Nick Dixon slipped into his new role as well.

Can't wait for book 12 :D

A good crime novel, well written. It took me a few chapters to get into the storyline after which it was an enjoyable read. I will try other books in the series.

It took me a while to get into this book, maybe because it is the first book I have read in this series. However once I got into the story, it was very good. I liked the characters, though it took a while to get to know them . The crimes were well thought out and there are a couple of twists in the book which add the the suspense and which were unpredictable.
All in all a great book, enough information about the investigation to keep interest up and enough personal about personal lives to add human interest. I will definitely read more from this author
Thank you to Net Galley for the ARC in exchange for an honest review

A DCI Nick Dixon thriller that is brilliant, it engaged me right at the beginning, and I was hooked on the plot until I finished the book. Dixon does not follow the sheep and say what his commanding officers want, he seeks the truth, despite it being unpopular. A great whodunnit with lots of twists and turns thoroughly enjoyed the book and look forward to reading more books by this author,
Thanks Net Galley and the publisher for allowing me a advance copy to read.

Solid police/Crime story. Unfortunately I came to this series in the middle so didn't understand all the back story but enjoyed the characters nonetheless and it was a pacy read that stood on its own merits!

Having read all of the Nick Dixon books, I was looking forward immensely to this novel. I was not disappointed in any aspect. A truly riveting book. A complex plot of financial double dealing and murder. Excellent characters as always. A true page turner. Looking forward to the next novel

I have really enjoyed this series, Damien Boyd just comes up with great reads that are not copies of any of his previous books. Brilliant character development, superb story lines his books can be read individually or as a series. He is an excellent author who delivers every time. I can recommend his books without reservation.

I enjoyed this novel a lot. The characters were engaging and the plot flowed quickly and was interesting. There were lots of twists and turns and I thought the relationships between everyone was believable. Recommended.

A massive thank you to both NetGalley and Amazon Publishing for the copy of Damien Boyds Dying Inside.

Having read the previous 10 books in the series I have become a massive fan of the Nick Dixon series and Dying Inside continues to deliver on the characters that we have experienced.

Yes reading the 10 previous books gives you a much larger knowledge of the characters, however the beauty of Boyds writing is you can pick up this book and still enjoy it.

I highly recommend this to anyone its an amazing series and Damien Boyd is a master in storytelling.

An excellent well-written book, believable storyline, full of twists and turns, good ending. Intricate plot with really good ending.

I would like to thank Netgalley and Amazon Publishing UK for an advance copy of Dying Inside in exchange for an honest review.
I thought I may be at a disadvantage as I had not read the other books in the series, but I don't think that mattered too much as it can be read as a stand-alone.
A well-written police procedural, one of the best in my opinion. Fast-paced, plenty of intrigue and suspense. I now have to go back and read the others.

Thank you #NetGalley and #Amazonpublishing for my e-copy of #dyinginside in return for my honest review.

Dying inside is the 11th book in the Nick Dixon series by Damien Boyd.

Although it’s the 11th one it was my first time reading anything in this particular series. First time reading anything by this author actually, and I was not disappointed. I didn’t feel as I was on a back foot for I’m not having read the previous novels; I worked just as well as a stand alone.

I found this book to be well written. I particularly liked the detail that Boyd went into with the police procedural element, but still keeping you-the reader, engrossed it the story while still keeping it factual.

There was also the brilliant balancing of all of this with humour which encouraged be to continue reading.

I can honestly say that I enjoyed this novel, not only from the start but continuously the whole way through. And I can say that I am now encouraged to read the other books from this series.

Really enjoyable, fast paced story.
Keeps you hooked and very hard to put down. Another great DI Nick Dixon story. Looking forward to the next in the series.

I just love the Nick Dixon series and have read all 11 (now) and they are on a par with Ian Rankin or Peter James as police procedurals.

Waiting for number 12 already!

A great story with lots of twists keeping you hooked right in. Hard to put down so be ready to invest the time...

Excellent book. It was a really nice read , & I don’t mean that in a derogatory way. Although there were multiple murders it was a gentle book. Loved it!

Newly promoted DCI Nick Dixon is fed up with being desk-bound and sitting in meetings when he would far rather be actively solving crimes. When a series of sheep killings escalate and two bodies are found, both victims shot at close range by crossbow, Dixon gets his wish.

What follows is a fast-paced and tightly written narrative with plenty to engage the reader. We are drawn into an investigation focusing on the link between a dead accountant, a pensions scam, a capsized yacht, and a tax avoidance scheme. Even when the case appears to be wrapped up, there is one further twist to come but it absolutely makes sense.

Dixon's policing instincts are natural and realistic, and we are always fed just enough information to move things forward. The tension gradually mounts as the perpetrator's identity becomes clear; however, it is often what we aren't told that proves crucial, as there proves to be more going on than initially appears the case.

I also liked the interaction between the different officers and look forward to how this develops over future stories, especially the relationship between Dixon and PC Nigel Cole. The setting in the Avon and Somerset area is a bonus.

Damien Boyd is a new writer to me, but will definitely be reading more and catching up on the previous books in this series.

I was sent an advance review copy of this book by Amazon Publishing UK, in return for an honest appraisal.

I can’t believe this is the 11th book in Damien Boyd’s Nick Dixon crime thriller series. They are enjoyable to read and like the other stories in the series Dying Inside gradually develops the key characters whilst focusing on a capsized ship and a series of murders by use of crossbow. There are twists and turns throughout the book with an unexpected ending. I recommend Damien Boyd Nick Dixon series, you could read Dying Inside as a stand-alone or my recommendation would be pick up the first book and see how you get on, although you don’t necessarily need to read in strict order. Another key factor that makes Damien’s books so interesting is the way he covers police procedures as part of the story, All set in the Somerset countryside and along its coastline and beaches.
