  Two people, an online business meeting. Before it's over, one of them will be dead. 
   
   
   
  On a weekly Zoom call with her most valuable client, Antonia Berry is beyond horrified when she witnesses his murder—four hundred miles away—live on her laptop screen. 
   
   
   
  DCI Jane Phillips and the Major Crimes Unit begin to investigate and at first it seems the victim is just a regular guy with no obvious enemies or connections to crime. But then, when a woman is killed in a seemingly random hit-and-run, they discover the two victims are closely connected. A coincidence? Or a double murder? 
   
   
   
  As the team dig deeper into the two attacks, they hardly have time to draw breath before a third victim turns up dead—once more with clear connections to the previous murders. 
   
   
   
  With the clock ticking, Phillips and her team pull out all the stops, desperate to solve the case before the killer strikes again. The only problem—the person most likely to be the next victim is also the number one suspect. 
   
   
   
  Can Phillips find the killer before another person dies? Or will her determination to serve and protect at all costs see her become the final victim of the Deadly Caller?

  The corpse was snoring softly behind the sofa.  
  It is early November and the Wynmouth Fire Festival is in full flow. A dozen or more giant statues are about to be put to the torch. The locals jokingly refer to it as “the Bonfire Night Massacre”. Fireworks and bonfires are the order of the day, and Simon Turing is looking forward to seeing the display. 
  He is in town performing at a local theatre, a revival of a fifties mystery play. All is not well at the venue, however. The theatre is in financial trouble and there are tensions backstage. The management needs a good box office if the theatre is to survive the winter. Luckily, the fire festival is a significant draw to the town. But when the theatre’s own contribution to the festivities erupts into flames a couple of days earlier than planned, it does not bode well for the rest of the run.
