Publisher's summary

Looking for a brilliant best-selling crime mystery with great detectives?

Detectives Calladine and Bayliss face a vicious serial killer in a mystery with a shocking ending.

A woman’s body is found in a disused church, a homemade stuffed toy by her side. The victim had been dumped there months ago. The crime has the hallmarks of 20-year-old case whose alleged perpetrator is in prison.

Detective Ruth Bayliss must work out whether a serial killer has returned, or if a new killer is just taunting the police.

Her partner DI Tom Calladine faces the fight of his life to clear his name of corruption accusations. And then things go from bad to worse for Calladine....

With the team under massive pressure and drugs flooding the streets, another gruesomely presented body is found.

In an ending with a huge twist, the detectives must unpick decades’ old lies before anyone else dies.

If you like Angela Marsons, Rachel Abbott, Mel Sherratt, Ruth Rendell or Mark Billingham, you will enjoy this exciting new crime fiction writer.

Great book and wonderful narration..


This is the 8th book I've read about Calladine and Bayliss and I've enjoyed all of them. This was about drug dealing and murdering women, in horrendous ways but thankfully it wasn't described or I wouldn't have been able to read it. It was a good story.*******

There was no romance and the F-bomb was used 4 times.*******

As for the narration: Jonathan Keeble is one of my favorite narrators. He's one of the best at emotions and every characters having there own distinct voices.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
