About the Book

A chilling mystery with a huge twist

"A new queen of crime" - E.C.

A SICK KILLER WHO THE POLICE CAN'T PUT AWAY

Please note this book was originally published as "Desperate Measures."

They arrived at the landfill site to find uniformed officers conducting a rigorous fingertip search amongst the mouldering mounds. One area was cordoned off with yellow police tape. DS Mia Harvey cut a determined path towards it and found herself staring at the body of a young female crammed into a heavy-duty green-plastic refuse sack, chin touching knees, heels kissing buttocks.

DCI Paul Wells is certain that Chris Lennox is the killer. With Lennox safely in the cells Wells' team prepares its case.

But they can't get enough evidence to charge him. Time runs out and they have to release him.

Wells is desperate and his career is on the line. How can he and DS Mia Harvey prove that Lennox is their man?

MEET DETECTIVE MIA HARVEY A DEDICATED POLICEWOMAN TRYING TO WIN PROMOTION IN A TOUGH WORLD

Then, a second murder causes even more problems. Is there any chance that the DCI can finally get the result he wants before anyone else dies?

A RACE AGAINST TIME TO BRING A KILLER TO JUSTICE

DETECTIVE SERGEANT MIA HARVEY
Works at Larchborough Police Station. She is in her late 20s, single and unattached. She would, however, relish a romantic relationship but always puts work first. She is the only child of the late Robin Harvey, former chief superintendent at the Larchborough Division. After his death, Mia swore to follow in his footsteps and make him proud. She tolerates her mother at best. She is professional, conscientious, and has great respect for her boss, DCI Paul Wells, but is not above going against his wishes should the need arise. She is close to her colleague, DC Jack Turnbull, but barely tolerates DI Nick Ford, with whom she clashes regularly.

DETECTIVE CHIEF INSPECTOR PAUL WELLS
6' 5" and gangly, Wells is a brash Cockney with a well-hidden soft centre. A family man who is besotted with his daughters, he dresses well but lacks the finesse to appear anything other than dishevelled. Wells doesn't care about saying the right thing, but he is a fair man, and a great leader for his team.
