About this deal

The information on housing, people, culture, employment and education that is displayed about Cemetery Road, Leeds, LS11 8SU is based on the last census performed in the UK in 2021. In regards to the main story plot, while I have no doubt that rich, old, white men do control many, many things, this book was just unbelievable to me. The utter mayhem that these men, this Poker Club, bring is just not realistic. In small doses, sure, I think they can get away with murder, sleeping with every woman, bribing law enforcement/judges, etc. But the way it is described in this book is just ridiculous. These men control every aspect of this town and no one does anything about it. I just don't buy it. Weighing heavily on Marshall’s mind as he uncovers some truths about the murders and the underlying corruption pervading all levels of the town, is how much to publish. Does he put his own life, the lives of his loved ones in jeopardy, and must he sacrifice his integrity to expose the truth? To do so, may destroy the new factory along with impending jobs and related infrastructure. Undercliffe Cemetery is not managed by Bradford Council but by a charitable trust. Bradford Council owns the land but lease it to the trust. Please wear suitable clothing if you have to visit a cemetery during or immediately following heavy rain.

The reason I could not give this five stars is that this book did remind me of the Penn Cage series that this author has written. That series has recently ended so this coincidence seemed a little too convenient. The other reason is the characters including our "hero" of the story. Besides a side character of Nadine, I did not like any of them. This was the result of their choices which is a selling point of this novel. Choices whether forced or not don't always make the person shine in a positive light. When Marshall McEwan left his hometown at age eighteen, he vowed never to return. The trauma that drove him away ultimately spurred him to become one of the most successful journalists in Washington D.C. But just as the political chaos in the nation's capital lifts him to new heights, Marshall is forced to return home in spite of his boyhood vow.

The story starts with a murder, and a really cool excavation involving Native bones and weapons, and then turns into an investigation against the excessively rich and powerful. Set in Bienville, Mississippi (which, translated to English, literally means “Good City”) , with a large cast of characters, “Cemetery Road” is a very lengthy tome about power, family and one’s moral code, and has that recognizable Illes’ charm. Southampton City Council manages five peaceful cemeteries, all of which are open every day of the year and are easily accessible by public transport.

Thank you to Edelweiss, Harper Collins - William Morrow and Greg Iles for an arc of this novel in exchange for an honest review. A tasty, if not always tasteful, tale of supernatural mayhem that fans of King and Crichton alike will enjoy. Marshall’s high school sweetheart from over twenty years ago, Jet, still lives in Beinville and has married into the family of Max Matheson, patriarch of one of the families that rule the Poker Club. Paul Matheson, Max’s son, and Marshall’s best friend growing up, is now married to Jet. Paul, a Special Forces veteran, had saved Marshall’s life in Iraq and is now suffering from PTSD. Marshall and Paul’s relationship is complicated. Marshall adds to the complication when he renews a passionate affair with Jet that is bound to have major consequences. Greg Iles is one of the few authors that I make sure I read the newly released book right away. Other authors I can wait until I come around to it. The author has an amazing gift of weaving so many concepts together into one book and that is the case with this offering. In this one we explore unexpected loss of loved ones, political graft, love triangles, and a major conspiracy. All of these are put together without missing a beat. Even with all these concepts that isn't even the main concept of exploration in this book. That would be the choices we make whether we are forced into them or not and how we live with their consequences. These consequences could lead into heartache and pain and that is the result we have to bear. Heavy rain can cause graves to sink in the months following a burial. These will be 'topped up' by the contractor, but please report any that may have been missed.

CEMETERY ROAD | Kirkus Reviews

Rev. Sydney F. Clark (left to be Area Superintendent, North East Baptist Association – see picture R.) The bad: It doesn’t take very long for the characters to morph into roles of complete predictability. I must provide a disclaimer that there are a few parts of this story that are a bit depressing thus please be aware of that before you start reading. This novel also contains a few racy scenes for those of you who might feel the need to cover your eyes. In case it hasn’t been made obvious throughout the years, Greg Iles is one of my favorite authors: I adore his writing style, his characterizations and the depths his characters go to, to get what they need and want. I eagerly await the next book hitting the shelves and this novel was no different! Admittedly, Penn Cage (from Greg Iles’ serial novels) is my favorite Iles’ character and I missed him something awful in this novel and I hope to see him again sometime soon. (Hint, hint!) There are a total of 24 cemeteries which cover the whole Bradford Metropolitan District. The cemeteries are managed by two Area Offices.I never meant to kill my brother. I never set out to hate my father. I never dreamed I would bury my own son. Nor could I have imagined I would betray my childhood friend who saved my life or win a Pulitzer Prize for telling a lie.
