Do you know who's knocking at your door?

After a violent home invasion in the remote wilds of Glen Coe leaves a family of four dead, DCI Jack Logan and his team are brought in to lead the manhunt.

But, when one of the victims is revealed to be one half of legendary 1980s Glasgow-based comedy double act, ‘Neeps & Tatties’, Logan is forced to leave the Highlands and head back to his old stomping ground.

He may have spent his career dealing with the worst humanity has to offer, but to find out who killed Archie Tatties and his family, Logan will have to confront his most terrifying challenge yet - the seedy world of Scottish light entertainment.

An Isolated Incident is the eleventh book in JD Kirk’s internationally bestselling DCI Logan crime fiction series. Perfect for fans of Chris Brookmyre, Stuart Macbride, and Alex Smith.

Carlton Boyce

Another cracker from the most underrated crime writer of our time

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 6 May 2021

Verified Purchase

JD Kirk might just be the most underrated crime writer in the UK today. With pitch perfect dialogue that brilliantly captures police humour, his books are dark and funny and beautfully observed - often in the same sentence.

Every character is a joy, and I've been wolfing them down in a day's gulp for a while now. The perfect crime series if you like your police fiction Scottish, they each contain genuine laugh-out-loud moments without ever straying into formulaic.

Nailbiter down to the quick.

Oh, joy. Logan up in the Hielands and back down in his old Weegie stamping ground...Glasgow. Plot? Family brutally murdered in cottage in Glencoe. Tyler agonising over his coming op. Ben finally finding a touch of female company. Logan and Shona...good grief, they'll be drawing their bus pass by the time they dance the horizontal samba. Lots of black jokes. Lots of excitement. And a team we readers care about more and more. Plus the mighty joker in the pack, foul mouthed Hoon. Love him. Can't wait to read more of him. These stories just get better and better. Read it in one sitting. The dog had to wait for his walk and my tummy for food. Super recommendation. And oh, that wee half Russian minx. If she gets our Shona into danger I know Logan will get them out of it. Roll on the next story.

The Best Read Ever!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 19 May 2021

Another excellent, well written, fabulous Jack Logan and crew story. I bought all of the Jack Logan series and have read them all in record time which is annoying because I wanted to savour the MIT's banter and relationships. I've pre-ordered the next due out in summer and literally am counting the days. The level of humour and sarcasm JD Kirk injects into every page is delightful. I have woken my husband up many a time with my stifled belly laughs. The whole of Jack's team are brilliantly developed that I feel like I know them all personally. JD Kirk is definitely up there with Stuart MacBride and Ian Rankin and I think that he doesn't get the recognition that he deserves. I'll miss Jack and co for sure.

When’s the next one out!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 9 May 2021

My only criticism of this series is they never last long enough-purely due to my inability to put them down until they are finished! An Isolated Incident is no different, thoroughly enjoyed it. The interaction between characters is heart warming, touching, and hilarious all at once. There have been comments about swearing in other reviews, which there is some colourful language specially from one character in particular, who has a very rich and varied vocabulary but it never feels excessive and is always balanced with humour or is as a form of affection. Roll on the next one. I can’t wait!

Entertaining, well written series, this being one of the best.

I only discovered Logan and his team a couple of months and ago and devoured them all in a week or so. I love the humour, the banter and clever crimes well thought out out. I’m wondering how many Logan fans are also Lasser fans ... can Roughly and Kirk get together and make an ultimate team... with a smattering of Hoon and Plymouth!! Anyway I digress... this was definitely one of Kirks best, I laughed out loud a few times and didn’t guess! Always a good sign for me. Keep ‘em coming.

Perfect balance of crime and dark comedy

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 26 November 2021

Verified Purchase

I'm gradually working my way through the Jack Logan books and loving them all. My husband had read this one a few weeks earlier and had been very impressed (yet again!) so I started this with high expectations.
The novel is 402 pages split into 46 chapters in the same format as usual - why change a winning formula?
The book picks up almost immediately from the end of the last novel which is good news for the longevity of the characters - avoiding any "real time" character progression problems that many crime novelists seem to encounter.
The humour that this author uses in his writing is amazing. He creates jokes and then brings them back again and again as a stand up comedian would - "where's the haggis" and "peat hill" as two examples which made me laugh out loud.
Delightfully Bob Hoon is in this story from the start with some imaginative phrases that made me cry with laughter.
Serious issues are obviously a major part of the plot as this is a multiple murder case and no one should be under any allusion that this is a comedy novel. JD Kirk uses humour as a way of the police team (and the reader) dealing with the horrors that are encountered - this seems very realistic and amplifies both elements.
As in previous books, the author creates personal challenges for the recurring characters - in this book they are predominantly medical which are very normal problems that many people face and always difficult to cope with.
The dialogue is well written. It is said using Scottish accents (some heavier than others) and a few phrases which are worth saying slowly in your head just for a joy of them!! The accents are never difficult to read though and always enhance the reading experience rather than detract from it.

J.D.Kirk does it again with another unable to put down page turner.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 11 May 2021

Verified Purchase

His style of writing makes the Jack Logan series of books so very easy to read. I can imagine some of the dark humour actually happening in police stations all over Scotland. After 11 books you would think the books would become a bit samey, but they don’t, each story introduces new characters and completely different story lines. I was glad to read the Epilogue which I am hoping is going to the basis for Colder than the Grave which I have pre-ordered, I have also pre-ordered the first in the new Hoon series. J.D.Kirk aka Barry H. Will always have a loyal following as he is not up himself like some other writers, he engages with the people who buy his books by doing live videos, Facebook groups, Free to Join Newsletter where the members gets bonus tidbits like short stories, photo galleries etc etc. Can’t wait until the next book comes out in August. Thank You JDK. 🙂

Excellent, magical and blindingly good read.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 9 May 2021

Verified Purchase

Another excellent novel with all the magic ingredients of the others in this series, possibly even more so. I found myself breathless as the events rose to a blinding crescendo. I want Tyler to start being less of a schoolboy to Sinead's suffocating mothering, and hope to see him grow in future books!! But that's no reflection on the high esteem I hold this series in,it's great fun watching the characters develop. I'm especially intrigued by Ben's new interest and will follow that with unbridled joy.
