*WINNER OF THE CWA GOLD DAGGER AWARD 2019 FOR BEST CRIME NOVEL OF THE YEAR*
'Fantastic' Martina Cole
'Dark, sharp and compelling' Peter James
'A thrilling curtain raiser for what looks set to be a great new series' Mick Herron
A serial killer is burning people alive in the Lake District's prehistoric stone circles. He leaves no clues and the police are helpless. When his name is found carved into the charred remains of the third victim, disgraced detective Washington Poe is brought back from suspension and into an investigation he wants no part of . . .
Reluctantly partnered with the brilliant, but socially awkward, civilian analyst, Tilly Bradshaw, the mismatched pair uncover a trail that only he is meant to see. The elusive killer has a plan and for some reason Poe is part of it.
As the body count rises, Poe discovers he has far more invested in the case than he could have possibly imagined. And in a shocking finale that will shatter everything he's ever believed about himself, Poe will learn that there are things far worse than being burned alive ...

An okay start to a great series
The Puppet Show is the first book of M.W. Cravens Wahington Poe series, and you can tell. The story itself is decent, mutilated and burnt bodies are found in ancient stone circles all over the north of England. But seemingly there is no connection between any of the victims found. So how does the killer pick their victims and why does the latest victim have a wound on their chest that spells out "Poe" with a weird sign next to it? The idea is interesting enough the execution is sloppy and a bit bumpy at times. Especially the backstory of the main character that the author tries to shove into the book by any means possible doesnt sit right with me most of the time. I would still recommend it for any fans of the series that want to know how everything started. For anyone that is looking to become a fan and wants to start on a bit of a higher point I would recommend starting with either the second or the fifth book. All of them can be read and enjoyed by themselves and are in my opinion way better than this first book
