Believable and not too procedural. Great invention and craft shown by the author and despite the obvious reader manipulation techniques, you can’t help but be dragged along by the plot. As an ex police officer I found the characters believable and the politics true to life. I guessed the murderer long before the end but it was more the vivid descriptions of mood, well thought out behaviours and the evident love of the city as a backdrop that made this book such a good read for me. Thoroughly enjoyable.

Very good. Well written, great characters , a definite page turner, kept me up well last my bed time on several occasions, just downloaded the second book for hopefully more of the same

A cold case for Matilda Darke. Actual rating 4.5* For Reasons Unknown is the first in the Matilda Darke series and what a way to start a series! You can tell Michael Wood loves his books and particularly crime fiction. The author's love for books shines through in the descriptions involving Jonathan Harkness "Surrounded by books" "Books became an obsession " "his biggest passion was crime fiction". As Matilda and I learn more about Harkness, the author seamlessly inserts a list of crime writers and fictional detectives. Some I had read about, some I had heard of but then some that were new to me and made me head to Amazon to look them up! The characters also intriguing me - why is Maun so interested in Jonathan? Why does Faith want to please just Hales so much and annoy her colleagues in the process? As for Matilda, I imagined her as a slender woman with a crisis with body image for no reason despite "being a size 12 with chunky thighs". I like reading books based in the local area and despite it being 30 odd miles from Leeds and not knowing Sheffield particularly well, I did recognise certain aspects of the locale mentioned. I've experienced Meadowhell in the New Years sales and it is elbows and pushing; Michael totally got the sentiment right! I thoroughly enjoyed For Reasons Unknown and would recommend it to anyone who loves their police procedural crime novels....though I am a late joiner to the Matilda Darke fan club!!

Potential missed. I really enjoyed the first two thirds of this book; it felt like it was moving towards a set of stunning revelations. However, the ending lost momentum and fell a little flat; as if the author lost interest in the story. However this is the first novel I’ve read by Michael Wood and I will definitely try another one of his books.
