Hits the sweet spot between literary and crime fiction – Gripping’ Erin Kelly.
‘For those who love their crime fiction rich in psychology, beautifully written and laced with dark humour. Dive in’ Luice Whitehouse.
Mid-December and Cambridge shire is blanketed with snow. Detective Sergeant Manon Bradshaw tries to sleep after yet another soul-destroying Internet date – the low murmuring of her police radio her only solace.
Over the airwaves come reports of a missing woman – door ajar, keys and phone left behind, a spatter of blood on the kitchen floor. Manon knows the first 72 hours are critical: You find her or you look for a body. And as soon as she sees a picture of Edith Hind, a Cambridge post-graduate from a well-connected family, she knows this case will be big. |
