Dan Shepherd #7
Rough Justice
Dan "Spider" Shepherd is sent undercover to investigate a group of policemen in the Territorial Support Group. Fed up with all the paperwork and the fact that the system is geared to support the criminals rather than the victims, they have started to act as vigilantes, planting forensic evidence to frame known criminals, and moving on to more drastic methods. Spider is far from happy about deceiving fellow policemen, and things are complicated on other fronts for him too: his friend Jimmy Sharpe is tied up in an undercover investigation that is causing problems, and he's discovered an extremely disturbing film on his son's cell phone.

Rough Justice is the 7th book in the Dan “Spider” Shepherd series, an action thriller series that specialises in undercover operations that invariably take down terrorist threats and serious crimes. Shepherd is considered one of the elite operatives, but he’s often torn between work and his duties as a single father to a 12 year old boy.
It’s suspected that a group of coppers have started to carry out vigilante justice and the powers that be want to draft Shepherd in to go undercover to find out who the rogue cops are. The fact that the team is the elite Territorial Support Group makes this an even more difficult job given their distrust of outsiders and their record of operating at a level above any of the standard teams.
Shepherd’s not particularly happy about going after fellow cops, particularly when his focus as a member of SOCA is usually on larger threats from overseas. But the fact that the vigilantes are carrying out pretty heavy reprisals such as castrating sex offenders, hanging paedophiles and shooting released criminals, things have gone too far and action must be taken.
As well as the pressure that comes from his highly intense job, Spider also has to deal with a rapidly escalating problem at home that will potentially put his son in danger. On top of that, the nephew of the Major that Shepherd does off the books work for is murdered and revenge is foremost on the mind of his boss.
These three storylines are linked by the question surrounding justice and when is it okay to take justice into your own hands. Dan Shepherd is faced with a moral quandary around the act of vigilantism, one that definitely paints him as a hypocrite given some of the “off-the-books” actions he takes when he thinks no one’s looking.
With three significant subplots unfolding at the same time there’s quite a bit going on and the pace is brisk as each action sequence follows hard on the heels of the last. Lovers of action thrillers laced with police procedural sections will enjoy this one.
The best scenes in the book come from within the TSG team typified by an easy camaraderie between the team members who regularly face life or death situations together. The joking, kidding and name-calling ensures that this comes across as an authentic environment and helps to make each of the characters real and relatable.
Rough Justice appears to take Spider Shepherd into a darker part of himself as he’s faced with difficult decisions that could have lasting effects in the future. I enjoyed the fact that we (finally) moved away from the sameness of the terrorist threats that have dominated each of the earlier books and challenged us with something new.

Whats not to like about Dan 'Spider' Shepherd. These books are very samey but i do enjoy them :0)

Once upon a time I was lucky enough to receive a quick email from Stephen Leather when I popped a review of Long Shot on my blog. It was from a cybercafe in Thailand or somewhere so I couldn't reply him. Shame.
Leather has consistently written good thrillers including The Chinaman, one of his first and still one of my favourites of all time. This is the 7th Spider Shepherd novel and I *think* I've read them all to date. I'm not sure, which is one of the reasons I joined GoodReads! I need to keep track...
Rough Justice is very much a crime thriller of modern times. Spider is drafted in to try and discover which corrupt policemen in a special unit attached to the Met happen to be taking the law into their own hands - castrating rapists, shooting gangbangers, hanging paedophiles and the like.
As Spider infiltrates the group, he also has personal issues at home with his son threatened and his old army Major looking for his own form of revenge when his nephew is murdered.
As such, the book throws up the same question from three viewpoints - when it justice just? And how far should you go? Is it OK when it's your family to step over the line? Or a close friend? Or when it's society that's taking the brunt of a poor justice system?
This is definitely the best Shepherd novel and one of Leather's best overall. Highly recommended for pace and delivery. I particularly like the way that little nuggets of well-researched trivia are dropped into the text and dialogue in a way that won't patronise the reader.
Great stuff. I have at least one more Leather in my "to-read" pile and I'm looking forward to it.

Rough Justice is a brilliant read. It offers the entertainment and distraction that I like to find in a thriller, but it also had me thinking about a number of issues and really stretched my opinions until they were out of shape.
The subject under investigation is justice itself and the book demonstrates just how complex and thorny a topic it is. Mr Leather pushes the boundaries with the clever juxtaposition of the various strands of the plot. In each of these elements there is a need for justice and in none of them is the outcome either straightforward or the same.
Shepherd is working undercover as a member of an elite police unit. He’s mixing with hard people who have strong beliefs. The investigation is aimed at uncovering a gang of law-enforcers who have decided to take the law into their own hands. We get to follow the gang as they mop up the streets and take serious villains from the streets. Their methods are unorthodox these days, but could be viewed as ‘an-eye-for-an-eye’. Rather importantly, they seem to be succeeding where the law appears to fail time and time again. They’re brutal, efficient and it’s difficult not to feel sympathy with what they’re aiming to achieve – difficult for Shepherd and difficult for me as a reader. To add to the elements here, the issues of racism are raised at a number of levels and examined in ways that aren’t easily or frequently aired.
Added to this, Shepherd finds himself in a position of assisting the Major as he seeks closure for himself and his brother after a number of off-duty soldiers are gunned down by Irish terrorists.
Further fuel is thrown onto the fire when Shepherd’s son is found with a clip of a beating on his phone; because Shepherd reports this to the school, a chain of events is set into motion that leave his home and family at risk. It needs to be dealt with, but the police seem powerless to take it on. Worse still, it’s not long before Shepherd is made to feel like he’s the villain of the piece by one particularly PC PC. Said PC talks sense and brings a liberal mind to the tale, but somehow manages to come out rather badly in doing so.
The development of each aspect is taken at the perfect pace. They link together and bounce off each other perfectly to make the whole even greater than the sum of its parts.
I particularly enjoyed the characters. They come across as very real people in very difficult situations and are presented in ways that blur black and white throughout. Stephen Leather does a fantastic job of zooming in and out in order to build a level of sympathy with the majority of the people who inhabit the book and manages to do this without ever giving the sense that he’s out there pulling the strings and manipulating events, something that I found rather impressive.
At the time of reading, the verdict on the Mark Duggan police shooting came through. The conclusion of the courts clearly doesn’t satisfy everyone, nor could it possibly. What the coverage of the story has shown is how powerful the police are and what amazingly difficult situations they have to cope with. Having grown up with some of the old-fashioned policing that is oft referred to in crime novels of late, I’ve rarely been a police sympathiser, but I think this book came close to helping me understand something of the impact the power of being a police officer must have and it was interesting to take a look at the world from such a different point of view.
I also read this immediately after Ian Rankin’s ‘Saints Of The Shadow Bible’, a novel which also deals with issues of justice and police stretching it to try and make it work. The books are both great, very different and complement each other really well.
For Rough Justice, the 5 stars were never in doubt. Any fewer and it would have been a crime.

It appears that the author has been working up to some serious, thinly veiled between-the-lines political commentary by identifying with his frustrated, emasculated justice enforcement characters. With this book he makes his views known in terms of run-away political correctness versus common sense and natural justice. I think he is a closet red neck, lol.

The latest in my Spider Shepherd series and another 5 star read. Enthralling from start to finish. Onto the next one now 👍
March 5, 2017
Book number 7 in the Dan @spider' Shepherd series. This one seems to contain more violence than the previous books, but everything seems in context with the story line. Once again SOCA is tasked with investigating a rogue Police unit who seem to be acting as a vigilante squad. This means that once again Spider has to infiltrate, and investigate, what was once known as the Metropolitan Police's Special Patrol Group. These were the 'heavy guns' tasked with going into situations where other Police units feared to tread. As usual there are other side issues which affect Spider's concentration.
I did have a couple of concerns with this book. Razor Sharpe plays a part early on in the book, and is then largely ignored until the end. The climax of the book felt a wee bit rushed too. Nonetheless, nothing stopped my enjoyment of this book.

(Potential Spoilers)
I loved this one. I have to admit that Leather's Spider series has improved of late, and as you will see from my reviews, after the first in the series I was becoming more and more disappointed with the multiple storylines, and 'much of the same' terrorist plots, but this one got a 5-star rating for differing reasons.
Firstly, although there are three parallel plots (as always!), they tie into one another well, if not for any other reason, but for the fact that there is a Leitmotif joining the three stories: vigilantism! This is one of the first things that I loved about this story; not that I necessarily approve or condone it, but it really makes you think whether it is 'so' wrong given the cases at hand...
Another aspect of this book which really brought the realism into fiction was with the use of the nicknames for the team members of the TSG squad that Spider was sent to infiltrate. It really brought home the sense of camaraderie among the group and made it even more believable. Once again, Dan's moral judgment is put to the test as to whether their work is really worthwhile and more doubts are cast on his continuation in SOCA.
This is a very well written story (-ies), and the situations touched upon will definitely ring true for readers from many conutries and have you asking yourself what really 'is' right or wrong.
Good work, Stephen. As soon as I finish Connelly's latest, I'll get back to the Spider series hoping that there's more of the same!

I loved this, as I love all the Spider Shepherd books. They're very gung ho, and macho, which I didn't think would be for me ( I was drawn to this series after reading the Jack Nightingale books - I LOVE THEM !!!) , but I'm obsessed with them.
Love the action, and the emphasis on the Muslim traditions and religion - very enlightening. Also loving the insight in the world of the military - riveting.
As someone who was hooked on Gene Hunt from Life on Mars, and is still actually suffering withdrawal symptoms , I particularly liked the storyline of this book - Rogue police dispensing their own brand of justice, along with the continuing updates of Spiders home life .
Am now reading the last in the Spider series ( until July ) , and can't wait for the next one

Another Spider Shepherd thriller by the author of The Chinaman (basis for the recent The Foreigner movie).
I have said before that Spider is like a British Chuck Norris (and I mean that in a good way). Nothing seems to really drive him nuts, he keeps his cool. But he gets the job done. Tough to be an uncover policeman (a special unit) and a father, but somehow he manages it. This is my 6th or 7th book by Stephen Leather and I have enjoyed them all. My 3rd Spider Shepherd thriller. Looking forward to more of the same.....

As the previous reviewer said these are a bit samey but enjoyable nonetheless. I wish he had never brought in the whining child, people like Dan should either never marry or they should get out of the sort of work they do, constantly having a whiny wife or kid is counter productive. The stories would be much better if we didn't have to keep going back to that.

Although I don't believe in "an eye for an eye" type of justice, this book made some valid points and was a good read.

Yet another brilliant dan shepherd book. What an ending can not wait to read the next one.

Bent coppers? Not exactly, just a little skewed! Another exciting book in the Spider Shepherd series, with a couple of stories running alongside each other.

A slow burner that gets hotter, yet you can't put it down, the nearer you get to the end.

I written on several other books in this series, so I won't repeat that info on another of the Spider Shepard books. Don't think I'll read many more. One funny note the recurring lines across the series. "Teach granny how to suck eggs," and "the end justifies the means," are two favorites. Kind of like "boiled onions and boiled leather," in the GOT series.
The main character complains about the assignments he is given, though he agrees that they need to stop bad cops, while he goes off and does a classic bad cop murder, himself, all without a single introspective moment comparing what he did with the vigilante cops he is setting up. He repeatedly justifies his job without apparently being aware of his hypocracy. Odd.

Written in 2010 - true then and even more relevant today because of crazy very lax migration laws and no criminal record checks. There must be 10m foreigners of dubious extraction taking advantage of the very generous laws and stupid Home Office civil servants. Albanian drug gangs and people smugglers helped 20,000 illegals arrive in dinghies across the channel this year alone plus 50,000 Afghanistan muslim refugees all living in taxpayer funded hotels. Stephen Leather is spot on when writing this "fiction" using facts that are a more true today and a major criticism of the UK Parliament and the government. The UK taxpayers are funding their own demise and a civil war is in the offing and will provide more grisly facts for Stephen Leather and other so called fiction writers.

I am halfway through the spider Shepard series of books and have just finished Rough Justice. These books about our hero are so well written and there is always a message in these books that you can relate to. Stephen Leather is the master of his craft and the characters are so well believable, and the parts that you read that you really relate to are the conversations between the police officers, and how unjust our country's legal system lets us down. Just the way our country embraces the whole of the world, but how they abuse our system. This series of books are on par with the Reacher books and once your hooked you have to read them all.

As ever a Spider Shepard, Stephen Leather, thriller that has you turning pages as soon as you read the first paragraph. Stephen Leather also asks the questions that sometimes we don't want to answer. Spider, now working for SOCA, is put undercover in a Tactical Support Group (TSG) to help identify some rogue TSG Officers who seem to be taking the law into their own hands. As the politics involved are very up to date, the reader is set some challenging questions. Where do you sit?. Great thriller, brilliantly written and set. Well worth reading.
March 14, 2018
xxx pages. Always a good read with Dan Shepherd, but this time the multiple plots spun into the single book make a for clever book and well put together. Pace is always slow, but the reality is good. Yes, it's fiction, but you can always believe it as being true. Time for Dan to get a woman. A good and very surprising ending to the book, but this presumably leads on to part of the plot for #8.

This was a great continuation of the Spider Shepherd series. I must have enjoyed it because I read it much more quickly than the previous ones (which were also great). The moral dilemas of cops investigting cops were well written. The development of the complex relationship between Charlie and Dan was also really well thought out. Razon continues to be added interest. All in all, a great read and an interesting reflection on society.

Another great instalment which finds Dan growing continually questioning the role and merits of SOCA.
A great story with a satisfactory end. Also great to see more stories about Dan’s home life. We certainly missed that aspect in the previous book (largely due to the setting).
Very saddened by the death of a long standing character. A death which I am certain will have very serious ramifications.

So many sub stories that weave in and out of the main undercover work that Spider has to do. His home life comes under the spotlight, his previous career has unresolved issues and the undercover work is with people who represent the law but may have resolved a more direct policy on punishment.it will leave you with moral dilemmas

A brilliant roller coaster ride of a book
I love Stephen Leather's books and decided to reread them all again. I am on a bing marathon read of the Dan Spider Shepard series and hope to complete them by the end of the year.
The book is well written and spot on with the dialogue as well.
Keep up your great work.
Best wishes

I didn't like this one as much as the previous books in this series but still a good read. Shepherd is highly perceptive and shows great instincts in the field however what didn't jive with me was how his instincts seemed to be completely off concerning his Au'pere and son's safety. It didn't connect well.
June 13, 2020
When you begin to read this story after reading the previous books in the series, the thought will cross your mind that it's just more of the same. Oh no it's not !
More heart racing, then heart stopping, action action action. Great read.
