Eight Days by Jac- k Benton. I have become addicted to Jack Benton’s mystery/thriller books since the very first Slim Hardy novel I read‼️👍. As a struggling PI, Slim’s cases tend to be many in the cold case genre, hired to solve old mysterious disappearances in England! A recovering alcoholic since his military service in the Gulf War & suffering with PTSD, he seems to get inspiration & a genius perspective re his cases when he falls off the wagon! 😱. I’m looking forward to the 7th book in series, now on preorder! Mr. Benton’s stories are unique, weird & horrific & action packed holding you on the edge of your seat while quickly turning pages to discover what clue Slim has uncovered to the very last page‼️👏. I believe you’ll agree with my 5-star rating, so grab your copy of Eight Days , get hooked not only on the mystery, but on the believable characters Slim encounters on each new case, but his wonderfully descriptive writing talent describing his characters & the English villages, cities & countryside he visits while on a case, then read the entire series as I did‼️. ENJOY‼️😀. Carol R. Florida

Benton’s best book to date!. The Slim Hardy mysteries is a hardboiled, almost noir-ish series set in more-or-less-present-day Britain. The books follow ex-soldier and current P.I. Slim Hardy as he solves cases and battles his inner demons, alcoholism being the most dangerous—and prominent. In Eight Days, Slim finds himself hired by the parents of a teenaged girl who went missing for eight days and returned home, her mother says, a changed person. The kidnapper was never found. It's an intriguing setup for a P.I., and one that leads to a page-turning plot and some memorable characters—the best of whom is Bernadette, a world-weary teenager and classmate of the kidnapped girl. (I hope you're planning to give Bernadette a spin-off series, Mr. Benton—she deserves it!) Benton often writes with an unflinching eye about the benders Slim goes on—for staying on the wagon is not easy for him. It doesn't romanticize his alcoholism, but neither does it completely demonize it. The dialogue is smart and real, the action moves the reader along quickly, and the twists? The twists are the best kind—I didn't see them coming but in hindsight knew I should have. Eight Days is exceptional; Benton's best work to date. Raw, propulsive, and heartfelt, this mystery was impossible to put down. Highly recommended.

Convoluted family dynamics. Slim held onto the idea of being a private investigator, despite the passage of time James held onto primitive ideas about commerce and influence. His wife Georgia really just wants to know what happened to her daughter Dangerous liasons! I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
