Unbound ties- Liz Mistry-Crime/Police procedural            

DI Gus McGuire is back on the case… only this time he isn't, not really. There has been a

murder where drawing amongst other things were found by the hanging body. A short while

later he discovers his mother has been anonymously sent similar pictures and she thinks

she knows whom they are from. When there are more murders and getting rather close to

home, Gus is off the case and Alice is the new SIO. Chilling alternating chapters take us

to Scotland where someone is incarcerated, someone who knows that bad things must be

happening and who by. This is book seven in the DI Gus McGuire series but does happily

stand alone. I like Gus, he’s one of those real characters and someone you would want

on your side. A sense of humour and a realism that shows superb writing (as ever) by Liz.

A brilliant plot line with turns along the way to keep the grey matter active and keep the

pages turning ever faster. A surprise and a smile. I very much look forward to the next

instalment

Author Bio – Born in Scotland, Made in Bradford sums up Liz Mistry’s life. Over thirty years ago she moved from a small village in West Lothian to Yorkshire to get her teaching degree. Once here, Liz fell in love with three things; curries, the rich cultural diversity of the city … and her Indian husband (not necessarily in this order). Now thirty years, three children, two cats (Winky and Scumpy) and a huge extended family later, Liz uses her experiences of living and working in the inner city to flavour her writing. Her gritty crime fiction police procedural novels set in Bradford embrace the city she describes as ‘Warm, Rich and Fearless’ whilst exploring the darkness that lurks beneath. Struggling with severe clinical depression and anxiety for a large number of years, Liz often includes mental health themes in her writing. She credits the MA in Creative Writing she took at Leeds Trinity University with helping her find a way of using her writing to navigate her ongoing mental health struggles. Being a debut novelist in her fifties was something Liz had only dreamed of and she counts herself lucky, whilst pinching herself regularly to make sure it’s all real. One of the nicest things about being a published author is chatting with and responding to readers’ feedback and Liz regularly does events at local libraries, universities, literature festivals and open mics. She also teaches creative writing too. Now, having nearly completed a PhD in Creative Writing focussing on ‘the absence of the teen voice in adult crime fiction’ and ‘why expansive narratives matter’, Liz is chock full of ideas to continue writing. In her spare time, Liz loves pub quizzes (although she admits to being rubbish at them), dancing (she does a mean jig to Proud Mary – her opinion, not ratified by her family), visiting the varied Yorkshire landscape, with Robin Hoods Bay being one of her favourite coastal destinations, listening to music, reading and blogging about all things crime fiction on her blog, The Crime Warp.
