Description
DI Gus McGuire and his team navigate a complex web of intrigue, espionage and murder.
In Bradford, Manchester and on Saddleworth Moor, Gus will be pushed to his physical and psychological limits.
First a train between Manchester and Bradford is deliberately derailed by a vehicle carrying drugs, then a woman’s tortured body is discovered in Keighley.
But when Gus’ brother-in-law goes missing, the investigation becomes personal.
As he battles against the storms of the Beast from the East, Gus must uncover the links between the crimes, as well as the reason behind the disappearance of his brother in law. With the body count increasing, Gus sets his team loose on the Dark Web but how will Gus react when he discovers that things are not as they seem?
Meanwhile, DS Alice Cooper faces extreme danger in prison and, as the evidence mounts against her, Gus and his team’s loyalties are pushed to the limit.
Can Gus stop the blueprint for a deadly bio weapon from falling into the wrong hands? Can he solve a series of murders and track down a psychotic killer?
Never before has Gus faced a test as demanding as this….

Take a plotline that contains murder, torture, kidnapping, biological terrorism and MI6 add to that weather system dubbed " Beast From The East " and what do you get ?. You get one hell of a book.
Follow DS McGuire as he follows a trail of murder and espionage from Bradford to Manchester and onto the wilds of Saddleworth Moor.
Gus must rally himself and his team in order to carry out their work load, which sees the body count rise as swift as the weather front that is moving in to deliver its deadly load. They have to find what connects the victims in order to track the monsters who seem to take pleasure in the act of torture and death. The disappearance of Gus' brother-in-law adds further complexity to the enquiry.
Once a connection is made it becomes a race against the weather and the killers to bring about a conclusion and see justice done. Whilst all this rages on the outside DS Alice Cooper is imprisoned and as charges seem to mount and appear to be real she must face up to the monsters that surround her on the inside.
The camaraderie that the team share not just with each other but by extension between their families gives the book a depth that makes it not just a good book but a great book. Liz does not slow down the thrills as you gallop through this fast paced thriller which grips you from the first page. A book I devoured in two sittings as I could not and did not want to put it down. Her books just get better and better. Thank you Liz keep up the great writing.

This series, which has always been good, has reached new heights with the fifth instalment, Unspoken Truths. Liz Mistry is a tremendous writer, and this book, set against a backdrop of the Beast From The East, grips the reader from the very first moment. Gus McGuire is a fascinating cop and he is faced not only with tricky crimes to solve and the worst of the English climate but with the lives of his close colleagues. Already waiting for book 6!
