Patel & Pardoe are back! These two detectives work for the Metropolitan Police department. They are given the bizarre and perhaps supernatural crimes that the other officers on the force can’t or won’t handle. This time they are dealing with a rash of bizarre and horrific murders which involve a massive amount of coffin flies. Gross, gross, gross!
House of Flies is the 5th book in the Patel & Pardoe series. This could be read as a stand-alone. I feel Graham Masterton does a great job of giving enough information on the two detectives that new readers to the series can jump in and hit the ground running if they choose to start here. I have only read three books in the series and enjoyed all of them!
I enjoy Graham Masterton’s writing, his plots, and his use of supernatural elements in this series. I believe fans of the X-files or John Connolly’s Charlie Parker series, will enjoy this series. As I mentioned, I enjoy Graham Masterton’s writing, his well thought out plots and his vivid descriptions. I enjoy the supernatural element and the not knowing what was going to happen next. I enjoyed the creep factor in this book along with the detective work. With things being supernatural, finding the culprit is not always easy.
If you are a bit squeamish this might not be the book for you but if you enjoy a supernatural detective story. I found House of Flies to be a quick riveting book which was equal parts chilling, dark, eerie, and horrific. Another enjoyable, gripping, and wonderfully written book in this great series!
