Today I am very excited to be closing the blog tour down for Stewart Giles’ 25th Jason Smith book, The Electrician.

About the Book

The Electrician (A DS Jason Smith Thriller Book 25)

From bestselling author: Stewart Giles comes another brilliant addition to the Detective Jason Smith series.

If the lights go out – you’re as good as dead.

Detective Jason Smith is called out in the middle of the night to the scene of the most bizarre murder he’s ever seen.

A man has been shot dead and his hands have been stapled to the mains line in the distribution box. The family of the victim were blissfully unaware that anything was happening.

All the team have to go on is a witness who claims the lights in the area went out around the time of the murder.

After another man meets the same fate Smith is wide awake when he hears the testimony of his 4 year old daughter. She didn’t see who killed her father but the four words she heard him speak chills the marrow in Smith’s bones.

Ol’ Sparky is back.

The Electrician is in the city, and as long as Smith and the team are kept in the dark, he’s going to finish what he started.

What readers are saying about THE ELECTRICIAN

I thought this an intelligent, interesting read with a great gripping conclusion. I thought this an intelligent, interesting read with a great gripping conclusion. – Carol

Stewart, you have a skill, a rare talent for putting the reader at the heart of things, so much so its as if the characters are old friends. Please keep doing what you are doing. It’s brilliant. A heart stopping thriller of a read I most certainly won’t forget in a hurry. – Misfits Farm

My Review

This is the 25th book in the Jason Smith series so you should really have read some of the other ones to get an idea about the main characters, but it does work OK as a standalone if you really have to.

This book starts off as it means to go on, there is a power cut and whilst the power is out Smith gets a call saying someone has been found murdered.

As the story progresses more bodies are found where the person has been electrocuted, leaving the reader to wonder why and what they have done to deserve this.

The subplot involves Smith and his weird neighbour who always seems to appear whenever Smith goes out for a smoke.

Yet again this is another powerful and dark story from the imagination of Stewart Giles and kept me hooked and reading it far later into the night than I should have done.

About the Author


Stewart Giles – Author Bio

After reading English at 3 Universities and graduating from none of them, I set off travelling around the world with my wife, Ann, finally settling in South Africa, where we still live.
In 2014 Ann dropped a rather large speaker on my head and I came up with the idea for a detective series. DS Jason Smith was born. Smith, the first in the series was finished a few months later.
3 years and 8 DS Smith books later, Joffe Books wondered if I would be interested in working with them. As a self-published author, I agreed. However, we decided on a new series – the DC Harriet Taylor: Cornwall series.
The Beekeeper was published and soon hit the number one spot in Australia. The second in the series, The Perfect Murder did just as well.
I continued to self-publish the Smith series and Unworthy hit the shelves in 2018 with amazing results. I therefore made the decision to self-publish The Backpacker which is book 3 in the Detective Harriet Taylor series which was published in July 2018.
After The Backpacker I had an idea for a totally new start to a series – a collaboration between the Smith and Harriet thrillers and The Enigma was born. It brought together the broody, enigmatic Jason Smith and the more level-headed Harriet Taylor.
The Miranda trilogy is something totally different. A psychological thriller trilogy. It is a real departure from anything else I’ve written before.
The Detective Jason Smith series continues to grow. I also have another series featuring an Irish detective who relocated to Guernsey, the Detective Liam O’Reilly series. There are also 3 stand alone novels.
