Synopsis (Amazon)

When a man dies in a gas explosion, the police suspect arson. The Murder Investigation Team are called in to investigate.

The case takes on a new and terrible twist when a local villain is viciously attacked.

As the police enquiries lead from the expensive Harchester Hill estate to the local brothel, a witness dies in a hit-and-run.

Was it coincidence - or cold-blooded murder?

My Take

What a good series to have discovered. I have thoroughly enjoyed reading this, the second in the series, and look forward to the next. The plots are pleasingly complex, the characters well drawn, and the scenarios believable. 

My rating: 4.6

    This reminds me of an excellent thriller, No Exit. I recommend it for a super suspenseful read.
