Summary

The stakes have never been higher for Geraldine Steel.
When Alice Lewis is found murdered, the case becomes personal for DI Steel, as Alice was the niece of her childminder, Lisa. Despite Lisa's earlier pleas for help, Geraldine hadn't acted in time to save Alice.
Now, driven by guilt and a thirst for justice, Geraldine dives headfirst into the case. But the deeper she digs, the more layers of secrets and lies she uncovers about Alice's life, forcing her to question everything she thought she knew. With an elusive killer watching her every move, Geraldine finds herself caught in a dangerous game of cat and mouse.
Leigh Russell delivers a masterful tale of suspense, keeping readers on edge until the final shocking twist.

    An abandoned church in a village set in time—the ideal setting for murder. Detective Inspector Tremayne and his sergeant, Clare Yarwood, are hard pushed to solve the crime and to stay alive. 
     
     
     
    'Do you believe in spontaneous human combustion?' Detective Inspector Keith Tremayne asked. 
     
     
     
    'Not me. I've read about it. Who hasn't?' Sergeant Clare Yarwood answered. 
     
     
     
    'I haven't,' Tremayne replied which did not surprise his young sergeant. In the months they had been together, she had come to realize that he was a man who had little interest in the world. A cigarette in his mouth, a beer in his hand, and a murder to solve was about the happiest she ever saw him, and even then, he could hardly be regarded as one of life's most sociable. And as for reading? The occasional police report, an early morning newspaper, the back pages for the racing results. 
     
     
     
    Hardly the ideal attributes for a trip into the murky world of paganism and its rituals, but that's where they were heading and it was going to get dangerous, very dangerous.
