DCI Hannah Scarlett has a new DS on her cold case team. She wants her
team to investigate the death of a young woman who had been found tied
up and drowned in a shallow lake six years earlier. As the
investigation progresses, Scarlett begins to wonder if her victim is
tied to the recent murder of a book collector.
Meantime, Scarlett's friend, Daniel Kind has returned from overseas to
find his sister, Louise partnered up with a wealth lawyer.
Unfortunately that relationship ends shortly after his return
acrimoniously. Feeling he needs to set things right, Daniel goes to
visit the lawyer, only to find him missing. Concerned, a few days
later, and accompanied by Louise, and the lawyer's gardener, they find
the lawyer killed and at the bottom of a disused well.
It is something that Louise tells Daniel and which he passes on to
Hannah, that shows a link between the three deaths. More links appear
as the cold case team meets with the team investigating the two new
murders. Can DCI Scarlett's team solve the cases before more deaths
occur?
Once again, author Martin Edwards has written a very good murder mystery, which is hard to put down.
