It's Christmas, but Detective Inspector Kerry Cox is not celebrating. When the body of retired copper Bill Radley is found, broken by a three-storey fall, his death is labelled as suicide. Bus Cox doesn't buy this explanation. Why was she called in on her day off? And why have the Ministry of Justice made an appearance? Stubbornly ignoring pressures from above, she begins an investigation. But as the body count rises DI Cox is forced to do team up with Greg Wilson, a journalist and romantic mistake she once made. As the days of Christmas draw in , the pair realise they're hunting a ruthless serial killer desperate for revenge.

NB - this is a cancelled library book missing the first few (intro) pages but taped up.

Sending in a Christmas Bookbox.

Thanks for all the books and treats. I will try and read this in time to put it in my 12 Days of Christmas Exchange parcel.

In some ways I enjoyed this thriller but I felt the lead character got a raw deal as a woman in a man’s world and the ending was unsatisfactory.

Putting on the bookshelves at Highbury and Islington Station.
