Book Synopsis
When a familiar leggy blonde slides onto the back seat of his cab with the offer of work, taxi-driver and amateur sleuth Terry Bell isn’t keen. However, compared to the tedium of driving a cab all day, the lure of another mystery is too strong to resist, and Terry agrees to help. Tracking down a missing writer and his tape recorder sounds simple enough, but following the clues to a remote village, the case takes a dangerous turn when the man turns up dead. After the police take over, Terry and his sidekick Carol return home to find their flat ransacked—and that’s not the only surprise. Caught between a suspicious detective inspector and the machinations of a mysterious woman, can the wily investigator unravel the mystery before the killer strikes again?
In this murder/mystery series set on England’s northeast coast, The Jansson Tapes is book #3 in the Terry Bell Mystery series.

My review
Even though this is book 3 in the Terry Bell Mystery Series this is the first one that I have read and this did not seem to matter, as I did not get confused by the characters or the storyline at all, which I loved about it. It held the right amount of intrigue and suspense for me which made me want to read on. I do not wish to put any spoilers in this review so I am being mindful of that. I am now excited to read more of Colin Garrow’s work. I really enjoyed this book and the way it unravelled everything.
