    The heart-pounding, irresistibly clever new instalment in the bestselling Norfolk Murders series! 
    'The Norfolk series is Ross Greenwood’s crowning achievement - characters to root for, an intricate web of suspense, all set against a stunning backdrop. I can’t wait for more!' Wes Markin 
    When a teenage couple go missing, the police aren’t too concerned. Young lovers often make bad choices. 
    Then a body is found near a Suffolk lighthouse, and shortly after, two girls seem to vanish into thin air. Freshly promoted DI Ashley Knight knows she has a battle on her hands to keep the public safe, and she’s going to need expert help. 
    Ashley turns to her old protégé, Hector Fade, seconded from The Met to analyse an avalanche of data. But neither Hector nor Ashley are prepared for the chilling connection his work uncovers to the body by the lighthouse. 
    Ashley, Hector and the team must break down a fiendishly complicated network of people smugglers, but another victim is found at Horsey Mere and their worst suspicions are realised. A member of the gang has gone rogue and is taking lives for fun. When Hector uncovers a pattern in the choice of victim, time is against the detectives to stop the murderer killing again. 
    Ross Greenwood is back with a brand new, heart-pounding case for DI Ashley Knight, perfect for fans of Mark Billingham, Ian Rankin and Peter James.

    ‘Ross Greenwood is great at the twist. I know you’re going to scream at me for using the ‘twist you didn’t see coming,’ but I really didn’t.’ 
    ‘The only thing I can say that was a disappointment about reading this book, is that I somehow missed the first one in the series... What a cracking read! I'm now off the find book 1! 5 solid stars.’ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    ‘This was brilliant! So much going on throughout the book it was hard to keep up but so captivating till the end. Great story & characters. Loved it!’ 
    'Another great read with so many twists and turns it's like you are in a police car travelling at speed along the winding costal roads of Norfolk'⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 
    'Another cracker of a read from Greenwood. His characterisation is superb, and the plot line fast paced and scary. Just the thought of being buried alive… highly recommended as are all of this author's books, and made extra special by being set in beautiful Norfolk.' ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    Every brilliant person comes with problems. Even if that brilliant person is a child. 
     
     
     
    At least, it seems that way for Nathan. All he wanted was a perfect family. Is that too much to ask? 
     
     
     
    But instead of a perfect child, he got Cassie. She's a genius, sure, but she's not what he wanted. He doesn't care that she's a virtuoso on the violin or doing college level work at ten. She doesn't speak. Ever. To anyone. 
     
     
     
    And Nathan knows that that means there's something wrong with her. No matter what his wife says, he has to do something about his daughter. 
     
     
     
    He'll do anything to keep up the facade of having a perfect family, even if that means getting rid of Cassie. Someone has to stop him, but how will anyone know what's going on if Cassie can't tell them? 
     
     
     
    Having the perfect family just turned into a matter of life or death.

    A KILLER. A SAINT. A TOWN FULL OF WHISPERS 
     
    When an English expat is brutally murdered, his charred corpse left on a Loire Valley hillside, the police turn to juge d’instruction Matthieu Lombard to find the killer. 
     
    Instead, Lombard discovers a wealth of secrets, grudges and feuds in the idyllic town of Saint-Genèse-sur-Loire. He begins to suspect that the remaining members of the Comité des Fêtes know more about the death than they are letting on. 
     
    But rather than leading to an arrest, each clue he uncovers seems to point in one, unexpected direction: Joan of Arc. Is the answer to the murder hiding in the barroom gossip of the Lion d’Or? Or in another century altogether?
