Does death imitate art? An actress’s body on an ice rink echoes one of her famous scenes in this “clever, chilling and absolutely addictive” thriller (Noelle Holten, author of Dead Inside). Anna Symons is famous, talented . . . and dead. The actress’s body was found mutilated on an ice rink in Manchester, recreating a scene from a blockbuster film she once starred in. DI Erika Piper, having only recently returned to work after suffering a near-fatal attack, finds she must prove her worth as the hunt for the media-dubbed “Blood Ice Killer” intensifies. But when another body is found and the killer issues a personal threat, Erika must put aside her demons to crack the case or suffer the deadly consequences . . . “A pacy murder mystery, full of deceit, suspicion and revenge, Chris McDonald’s debut is a highly entertaining tale with plenty of shocks along the way.” —T. M. Logan, bestselling author of The Curfew “A superb tale deftly told with a human touch and a real eye for detail.” —Rob Parker, author of Far From the Tree “McDonald creates a strong, rounded lead in DI Erika Piper and I, for one, cannot wait to read the next.” —M. Sean Coleman, author of The Cuckoo Wood

    Outside, Rookery Barn glows in the mid-morning sunshine while fat bees flit lazily between the forget-me-nots. Inside, a body lies dead…
    
     
    Widowed Georgina Drake has no regrets about moving to beautiful, sleepy Little Wenborough in rural Norfolk. Until she opens the door to her rental property and finds the dead body of her latest guest, irritable university professor Roland Garnett. And on top of that she’s suddenly hearing a woman’s voice through her hearing aids.
    
     
    Completely shaken by the discovery, Georgina can hardly believe it when the police conclude that Professor Garnett was poisoned, with a dinner delivered by Georgina herself. Is she about to be accused of murder? Georgina needs to pull herself together, try to ignore the distracting voice, and clear her name!
    
     
    Asking around, it seems Roland Garnett offended half the village during his three-week stay and made unwelcome advances to the rest. But who was provoked enough to poison him? Georgina’s best lead is the deadly oleander found in Roland’s system. Her gardener, Young Tom, had access to the plant, but before she can talk to him Tom becomes the killer’s next victim.
    
     
    As the crimes mount up, so do the clues, but does Georgina have what it takes to follow them to their conclusion? Even when her amateur sleuthing puts her next in the killer’s sights…?
    
     
    An addictive and completely gripping cosy crime novel. Perfect for fans of Agatha Christie, Faith Martin and Midsomer Murders.
