Beyond the Point is the ninth novel in Damien Boyd’s addictive DI Nick Dixon Crime Series.
‘…the ninth in a series of police procedurals set among the murder investigation team of the Avon and Somerset force, it reads as a stand-alone. Furthermore it is steeped in layers of mystery and fast-paced action.’
‘…riveting stuff, intense action and creatively written.’
‘…a well researched book, intelligently written with the hero working things through with facts, intuition and that certain something that Nick possesses. There are the usual wonderful descriptions of Somerset that help me visualise the story.’
‘Not only a gripping read, but an interesting read too – set on the construction site of Hinkley Point C nuclear power station in Somerset, Beyond the Point gives fascinating detail about the massive works building this monster power plant.’
