Synopsis

In a town full of secrets the truth must be uncovered before it's buried forever.
When a police detective is found murdered in the town of Wakestead, all clues point to local woman Amma Reynolds.
Amma has a clear motive. She hates the police for failing to properly investigate her brother's death, which was written off as an accidental drowning.
Amma has always believed her brother was murdered. Could she have killed DI Mark Stormont in revenge?
Former detective and private investigator Erin Crane is hired to find out.
As she digs deeper, Erin realises that first she needs to uncover why Amma's brother turned up dead in a river all those years ago. Even if it means tearing her friendship with DI Lewis Jennings apart.
Because there are some secrets the Wakestead police force would rather stay buried…

    They arrive alive. They always leave dead. 
     But first, they give me their confessions. 
    My name is Jack Steen, and for those who arrive on my 'death' ward at the Asylum, I'm the last face many will see before they die. I am the night nurse at an Asylum for the Criminally Insane, and most of my patients know me as their Angel of Death. I know them as mass murderers, rapists, and serial killers - among other things. 
    Here's what happens: they come on my floor, they give me their deathbed confession, and I help to make their death less painful. There's a catch, though: I want the real story, the one they haven't told anyone else. 
    The majority of these killers are expert manipulators. They could be playing their final game with me by messing with my head. 
    Now, maybe they're messing with yours too. 
    Inside this book are 4 confessions that relate to marriage and murder (and how they go hand in hand):THE PREACHER has quite the past.BETH shouldn’t be trusted.WILSON is a farmer with buried secrets.SAM has a thing for soil and gardens. 
    WARNING: There is swearing in this book. And some stories might be a trigger for something you have a hard time handling. But, these are the confessions of serial killers, mass murderers, and such, so what do you expect?
