The first commuter train of the morning slowly rumbles away from platform seven of Queen St station. Everyone on board is sleepy, avoiding eye contact, reluctant to admit the day has begun. And then, as the train emerges from a tunnel, the screaming starts. Hanging from the bridge ahead of them is a body. Placed neatly on the ground below him are the victim's clothes. Why? Detective Inspector Narey is assigned the investigation and then just as quickly taken off it again. Tony Winter, now a journalist, must pursue the case for her. The line of questioning centres around the victim's clothes why leave them in full view? And what did the killer take with them, and where might it appear again? Murderabilia the practice of collecting items from crime scenes. Items only available on the dark web. The collector must be prepared to pay a high price. As Narey is about to find out.

This book is pretty much split into 2 halves - the first half is choppy, slow and a bit of a slog then half way through it changes up a gear and it's hard to stop reading! It took me a week to read the first half then a couple of hours to read the second so that tells you something.
The story itself was quite good and interesting, not something I've read too much about previously but the structure of the book and some of the writing let me down a bit. There were some sentences which just didn't read correctly, so that was slightly jarring too.
All in all, it was okay but really middle of the road for me.
