Review:
Alison Bruce has already demonstarted her credentials in the field of crime with two striking non-fiction titles, Cambridgeshire Murders and Billington, Victorian Executioner. Her research has paid off, although this is a very modern piece of work with both a strong police protagonist and a dangerous, disturbing criminal. (Good Book Guide)
Book Description:
The third novel in the DC Goodhew series, following on from Cambridge Blue and The Siren, from the rising star Alison Bruce.
