About this listen

A grisly death staged as an accident. Can a hard-nosed copper track a killer as elusive as a shadow?

North Yorkshire, England. Detective Chief Inspector Harry Grimm is reluctantly easing into life in the dales. As he gradually acclimatizes to the slower pace of the countryside while he awaits a return to the city, he’s called out to inspect a farmer’s crushed body. And despite the doctor on site declaring it a tragic mishap, the seasoned police officer rolls up his sleeves when evidence points to foul play.

Frustrated with the lack of witnesses and suspects, Grimm whips his easygoing team into action when a second corpse is found. And with a mysterious clue the only connection and the not-so-quiet village in self-imposed lockdown, the city-bred cop hunts for a link lethal enough to lead to murder….

Can he stop the picturesque countryside from becoming a blood-filled cemetery?

Best Served Cold is the riveting second book in the DCI Harry Grimm crime fiction series. If you like square pegs jammed into round holes, deeply textured plots, and lively local color, then you’ll love David J. Gatward's riveting puzzle.

Buy Best Served Cold to plow up the gruesome truth today!

I'm loving this series! Born in Yorkshire, my family moved to Sussex when I was at primary school, so I was perfectly used to eating cheese with cake, and Mischief Night, and wearing wellies, and eating Yorkshire pudding with gravy for first course, then loads of seasonal vegetables with roast meat for mains and apple pie with cheese or rhubarb crumble for afters.

I can't wait for the next episode!

Another corker!

Harry Grimm just gets more engaging and enjoyable as his character develops.
A brilliant sequel to Grimm Up North this story resonates with dark revenge and light humour wonderfully blended together.
Totally hooked ! Bravo Dave! Keep em coming

Nothing grim about Grimm

Really enjoyed this. The author tells a good story with humour thrown in too. DCI Grimm is called in to investigate when the body of a local farmer is found. At first the police thought it was an accident and that the man had been run over by his own tractor, but suspicions arise and Grimm and his team begin their investigations.

DCI Grimm returns

I love Harry and his team, I have listened to the 1st two books in quick succession and am about to start the 3rd. As someone who moved from Bristol to the North, I really relate to the differences between the cultures 😆 can't wait to see what happens next.

Really enjoyed, warmed to characters, especially Grimm who was brought to life brilliantly by the narrator. Looking forward to next book!

Brilliant

DCI Harry Grimm is still up north in beautiful Wensleydale. However, since he arrived the crime rate in this sleepy rural area seems to have gone up considerably! This time he is called to what seems to be a farming accident, but which turns out to be something much more sinister.

The story is well plotted and sufficiently complex to keep me interested till the end (I listened in one sitting!) The setting is beautifully described, and the characters are brilliantly drawn and are beginning to feel like old friends, and I have a bit of a soft spot for Harry.

As with the first book, Aubrey Parsons was brilliant as the narrator.

Grimm is still up north!
