Book Description
A cracking new police procedural from the acclaimed author Chris Collett.
Product Description
Lucy Jarrett is terrified. She's convinced that somebody is watching her, following her home from work and lurking in shadows. But when she looks, there's nobody there. The phone calls are real enough, even if the caller never speaks, although they never seem to happen when her husband is at home. She's struggling to make anybody believe her, but with the recent murder of another young woman, DI Tom Mariner must take Lucy's fears seriously. However, that's not all that DI Mariner has to contend with. His team is stretched to the limits when Nina Silvero, the widow of a former police officer, is found brutally murdered in an attack that could hark back to her husband's past misdemeanours. Someone, it seems, is out for revenge...

Newly married Lucy Jarrett is certain she is being watched. And she keeps getting silent telephone calls. With her husband away much of the time Lucy contacts the police, even though she is sure that they will not take her seriously as she has nothing much in the way of real evidence - the telephone calls only come when her husband is away. But the recent murder of another young woman, who had also received silent calls, prompts DI Tom Mariner to instigate an investigation.
But DI Tom has more weighty matters on his mind as Nina Silvero, the widower of a former police officer, has been found murdered, and the team are stretched checking back through former cases to see if the killing is linked to her husband's past misdemeanours, and is in fact a revenge killing.
The two investigations make for a fast-paced read. There are many clues that seem to go nowhere, but must somehow be part of the whole. The intricate relationships of the investigating team and those under investigation give a very rounded look at the individual characters. For me a particularly interesting aspect is that the book is based in Birmingham, where I spent my early years. In all, a very enjoyable, compelling book. Very highly recommended.
