From bestselling author: Stewart Giles comes another brilliant addition to the Detective Jason Smith series
‘BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU WISH FOR.’
These seemingly innocent song lyrics are about to send Detective Jason Smith over the edge.
Still traumatised after a harrowing trip back home, Smith is sent headlong into the stuff of nightmares when he returns to work.
When a woman is found dead with her spinal cord severed Smith and his team are thrown into the most disturbing investigation ever. Then another body is found and when Smith realises what this woman was subjected to he knows he’s on the trail of the most sadistic killer he’s ever come across.
All clues point to a Death Metal band. Wishbone are in town for a few shows and when Smith realises all the murders bear striking similarities to their song lyrics he starts to wonder if there is something more to this band than meets the eye.
This is the most horrifying case of Smith’s career and one the people of York will never forget.

My Review
Smith is back it is like visiting with an old friend. I have followed Smith from a wayward teenager and watched him grow and develop into the brilliant detective he now is. He has grown up it took a while ha ha. So now we have book 16: Wishbone and before I started reading I had to wonder what Stewart Giles had in store for him this time. As always I wasn’t to be disappointed it is another adrenaline pumping addition to the series.
Smith, Whitton and Laura are all recovering from their traumatic holiday in Australia and Smith and Whitton have not yet returned to work. But we know Jason Smith he is climbing the walls so it is time for him to get back to doing what he does best: tracking down and bringing to justice the criminals of York.
First body is the horrific discovery of a young woman who has been murdered with a violence that York has never seen but more is to come.
As the investigation progresses it becomes clear there is a definite link to a Death Metal Band named Wishbone. But is it a fan or the band? With very few clues around the team has their work cut out trying to find out what is going on.
Another absolutely brilliant, adrenaline pumping story from the brilliant Stewart Giles guaranteed to have you on the edge of your seat all the way to an ending you wont see coming.
Stewart Giles – Author Bio
After reading English at 3 Universities and graduating from none of them, I set off travelling around the world with my wife, Ann, finally settling in South Africa, where we still live.
In 2014 Ann dropped a rather large speaker on my head and I came up with the idea for a detective series. DS Jason Smith was born. Smith, the first in the series was finished a few months later.
3 years and 8 DS Smith books later, Joffe Books wondered if I would be interested in working with them. As a self-published author, I agreed. However, we decided on a new series – the DC Harriet Taylor: Cornwall series.
The Beekeeper was published and soon hit the number one spot in Australia. The second in the series, The Perfect Murder did just as well.
I continued to self-publish the Smith series and Unworthy hit the shelves in 2018 with amazing results. I therefore made the decision to self-publish The Backpacker which is book 3 in the Detective Harriet Taylor series which was published in July 2018.
After The Backpacker I had an idea for a totally new start to a series – a collaboration between the Smith and Harriet thrillers and The Enigma was born. It brings together the broody, enigmatic Jason Smith and the more level-headed Harriet Taylor.
The Miranda trilogy is something totally different. A psychological thriller trilogy. It is a real departure from anything else I’ve written before.
The Detective Jason Smith series continues to grow and there are now 16 books including the introduction: Phobia.
