Review by
Sudden Death is the gripping first novel in the DI Kelly Porter series, blending crime fiction with rich character development and an atmospheric Cumbrian setting. When the body of a teenage girl is found near Lake Windermere, Detective Inspector Kelly Porter—recently returned from London—must navigate local secrets, family trauma, and institutional corruption to uncover the truth.
The writing is pacey and sharp, with a compelling protagonist in Porter: determined, flawed, and refreshingly real. The plot unravels with plenty of twists, making it a satisfying read for fans of British police procedurals. While the crime is dark, the novel balances it with human insight and the rugged beauty of the Lake District.
A great read and looking forward to reading more in the series.
