A family that won't talk. A detective who won't give up.
Grant Burnside, the ruthless leader of a violent gang, was gunned down in 2014, but his murder remains unsolved. Detective Gus Freeman and his Crime Review Team take on the case, determined to crack the secrets surrounding the Burnside family.
Now under the leadership of Grant's son, Gary, the gang continues to cast a long shadow over the community, their influence bolstered by a family solicitor who ensures no member speaks out of turn. Gus, with his sharp instincts and decades of experience, digs deep into the family's façade, unearthing a trail of lies, intimidation and unfinished business.
As every lead reveals fresh layers of deception and danger, the team uncovers connections to other crimes, including the suspicious disappearance of a gang associate. With the stakes rising, Gus must navigate a labyrinth of loyalty and betrayal to expose the truth.
Creature Discomforts, the next book in the Freeman Files series, is a gripping journey into the depths of betrayal, loyalty, and justice.

Ted Tayler is the international best-selling indie author of the Freeman Files and Phoenix series. Ted lives in the English West country, where his stories are based. He was born in 1945 and has been married to Lynne since 1971. They have three children and four grandchildren. His thought-provoking mysteries appeal to readers of Sally Rigby, Joy Ellis, Pauline Rowson, and Faith Martin. His action-packed thrillers are a must for fans of Mark Dawson and J C Ryan. Gus Freeman's cold case investigations are carried out with reasoned deduction rather than bursts of frantic action. In each of the 24 books, unsolved murders are accompanied by romance, humour, and country life. The core message in the 12 Phoenix novels is that criminals should pay for their crimes. Unfortunately, the current system fails to deliver the correct punishment, so Phoenix helps redress the balance.
