DISCOVER AN ABSOLUTELY GRIPPING CRIME THRILLER FULL OF TWISTS.

Oxford women are being targeted in a spate of gruesome killings. And detective Doug Mullen is the prime suspect.

Julie Baxter went on a date and never made it home to her mother. Her mutilated body is found battered to death at the bottom of a ditch.

Private detective Doug Mullen is horrified to learn that she’s the same woman he’d met just the night before. He’d even bought her a drink.

Now she’s dead.

Doug’s one the last people to see her alive. Soon he’s arrested for her murder. But there’s no evidence to hold him.

Then, only days later, a new client he meets disappears — in the middle of their conversation.

The first woman he meets ends up dead in a ditch. The second disappears. One might be bad luck, but two is a police investigation . . .

Perfect for fans of Rachel Abbott, Robert Bryndza, Mel Sherratt, Angela Marsons, Priscilla Masters, Colin Dexter or M.S. Morris.
