A thrilling new whodunnit series, fast-paced and funny, featuring a
detective as sharp as his suits and a heroine who’s trouble. The
compelling new mystery featuring Bridges and George has them taking
on a haunting new case that will leave them doubting their
judgement, and even their own eyes and ears. When the body of a
Russian millionaire is found dead in the grounds of a grand home in
Oxford, DI Leo George immediately suspects foul play. The death
once again brings him into contact with Jess Bridges, an
investigator of missing persons with the uncanny knack for sniffing
out trouble, and just as often the cause of it herself.
Housesitting in the empty property next door, Jess is drawn into
the investigation and the pair soon realize that there has been a
nasty feud festering behind the grand facades of Oxford’s elite
homeowners. When another body is found, Leo and Jess find
themselves pulled into a mystery that will take them to a very dark
place, and bring them closer than they have ever been before…
Does Jessica know what the truth is? A stunning psychological debut
with a shocking twist When she arrives at work to discover every
trace of the company she was working for has disappeared, Jessica's
life spirals into freefall. Her romance with Michael, a celebrated
criminologist is already in trouble. He is sick of the
unpredictable behaviour caused by her ADHD and is convinced she is
a fantasist. When his flat is burgled and precious belongings that
remind him of his dead wife are stolen, he blames her. Forced to
prove her innocence, Jessica sets out to unravel the events of the
last few months. But when she stumbles on a dead body, the lies,
deceptions and betrayals that have dogged her whole life come back
to haunt her. Can anybody trust her?
'I raced through this book, at a rate of knots. And, oh my, I
wasn't expecting what the author delivered! Shocks aplenty, I can
tell you!' Amazon Top 500 Reviewer Jonah never thought he had it in
him to kill a woman, but he was wrong. She was lying at his feet.
He had to make the call. Grabbing the receiver on the old landline
phone, he dialled in the number. It took so long for the dial to
turn back. 9 click-click-click, 9 click-click-click, 9
click-click-click. 'Which service do you require?' 'Ambulance
-police -both.' Her scream still drilled in his ear even though she
was silent. He'd only thought to shut her up. 'I think I've hurt
someone.' When Jenny, a concert violinist, moves to an atmospheric
old house in Blackheath, it seems like the answer to her prayers.
The eccentric owner, Bridget, is keen to share her house with
like-minded artists and also living there is the charismatic actor,
Jonah, who is dogged by his traumatic past; both a curse and a
blessing as his edgy persona gains traction in the acting world.
Jenny is herself battling demons; unable to speak after a
catastrophic incident when she was a teenager, she is reliant on
strong painkillers to dull the constant pain. Gradually, an
insidious addiction takes hold and Jenny's life spirals out of
control. The housemates find themselves battling to save not only
their sanity, but also their lives...
A thrilling new whodunnit series, fast-paced and funny, featuring a
detective as sharp as his suits and a heroine who's trouble. 3000
years ago Iron Age people carved a White Horse on the Downs near
Uffington Castle and now someone has dumped a body there. Laid out
like a ceremonial killing, Detective Inspector Leo George isn't
convinced that the murder is what it appears. He suspects the young
female victim may have been a member of the Children of the White
Horse, a secretive valley commune, but none of the cult members are
talking. That is until he discovers his friend, Jess Bridges, is
undercover in the commune, attempting to persuade a wayward young
woman to leave the cult. Leo is confronted by the fact that Jess is
heading right into the heart of a mystery that has less to do with
ancient gods than it does modern vices, and there is nothing old
about spilling blood...
