A HEARTSTOPPING MYSTERY FROM YOUR NEW CRIME FICTION OBSESSION: BIBA PEARCE.

Detective Rob Miller gets a call he doesn’t want to take.

Rob is called to London’s West End on personal business when he gets a call. A body has been discovered in Soho Square.

The victim has whip marks on his back, a leather mask covering his face and a ball-gag in his mouth. The cause of death appears to be strangulation, but was it murder or a mistake?

The evidence quickly stacks up against the victim’s partner, Ralph Keaton. Under pressure from his higher-ups, Rob arrests Ralph under suspicion of murder.

But Ralph is adamant he’s innocent, and Rob’s gut is telling him the same thing. Yet Ralph lied about his alibi for the evening in question.

Then another man’s body is found: bound, gagged and dumped in the middle of a busy London square without any witnesses.

This killer is smart. It’s up to Rob to be smarter. But with a baby to look after and his boss breathing down his neck, Rob’s got a lot on his plate.

Then the killer makes it personal.

Now everything’s on the line . . .

AN UNSTOPPABLE CRIME MYSTERY THAT YOU WON’T BE ABLE TO PUT DOWN.

This gripping page-turner is perfect for fans of Helen H. Durrant, James Oswald, Joy Ellis, Angela Marsons, L.J. Ross, Janice Frost and J.M. Dalgliesh.

My Review Not a reader of Biba Pearce so it was nice to find this one, I understand it’s number 6 in a series but it didn’t stop me from following the plot or backstory, it merely makes me want to read more. London always seems a beautiful place with Royalty and Glitz but here we peel back the curtain and see beyond the glamour. Not just a generic murder mystery and an author that perfectly entwines so many stories and side stories and back stories together, like a beautiful web. Really thrilled at finding a new author to deep dive into their books and imagination, breathtaking and exhilarating all the way through. Dark winter nights are made for books like these.
