Lifeless is another great addition to the Tom Thorne series and it’s interesting to see him in a different state of mind to his usual one. To his colleagues, friends and even himself, Thorne seems to be on the verge of a breakdown and when homeless men turn up kicked to death on the streets of London, he volunteers to go undercover as one of life’s rejects – a part he seems strangely suited for given his state of mind.Īs Thorne begins to forge basic allegiances with other rough-sleepers, he begins to hear that a police officer has already been sniffing around – could the killer be one of the Met’s own?
Lifeless is the fifth book in the excellent Tom Thorne series by Mark Billingham and opens as Thorne is trying to deal with his father’s death at the end of the previous book, The Burning Girl.
