The death of a Church clock winder gives just cause for consternation. When more deaths follow a local historian, Dr Jackson, becomes involved in the police enquiries. Is there a link between the fatalities? Enjoyable mystery with a colourful cast and laced with a dry humour.

The Winder is a mind boggling, complex crime caper, that left me screaming for more.

It follows the suspicious death of a pensioner, and leads into a series of sinister events which had me gripped from start to finish.

John Hunter has done an amazing job of drip feeding information throughout the story that kept me interested. My head was in a spin by the conclusion of the book!

The lead character, Jacko, is both funny and intelligent. The contrast between Jacko and Police Detective Flett couldn't be funnier. And that's what I loved most about this book - the humour. Yes it is a crime novel, but it is laced with some very memorable funny moments throughout.

A must read for lovers of crime fiction.

Complexes and solidly build this book was a delightful time of reading in this trouble era. I recommend it!

This is a fairly complex story with interesting characters that is mostly engaging, and has pretty good pacing. It's not a light read, but a good one. Recommended for fans of crime stories.
