Leek has had a recent spate of attacks on elderly people. DI Joanna
Piercy and DS Mike Korpanski are unsure if it is a gang or an individual
doing these heinous crimes because of the information provided by the
victims. The intrusions have turned increasingly violent until a murder
occurs.
Piercy sets up a murder room and with her team review the past attacks
up to the current murder. Evidence is scant. However, the
great-nephew seemed to know the victim well, but would he kill her?
Also, the milkman who found her had previously found another elderly
victim who had survived an attack. Is he responsible?
When evidence from one of the previous attacks is found in the last
victim's home with her fingerprints on it, Piercy and Korpanski need to
re-think. Piercy wonders if the attacks were separate, not gang related
as previously thought, and did one even really occur? New suspects are
now considered.
Author Priscilla Masters provides a few suspects for the reader to
consider, however throws a completely unexpected conclusion at the
reader. A good, short read.
