How far would you go to ensure the past remains buried forever? Solomon Gray is about to find out...
When the lifeless body of a migrant washes ashore, for Detective Sergeant Solomon Gray it seems to be another tragic casualty: an open-and-shut drowning. Yet the ebbing tide reveals its secrets, and the beach becomes a crime scene as a second dead immigrant emerges - brutally stabbed to death. However, it is the final corpse which deeply unsettles Gray. The deceased is the favourite son of local business tycoon Jake Armitage, a man with a notorious past and a former schoolmate of Gray's. Consumed by grief and fury, Armitage vows to hunt down his son's killer and exact revenge. Soon, Gray's relentless investigation takes an unexpected turn, connecting the recent deaths to a devastating fire which occurred a decade earlier-a tragedy that still lingers in the town's collective memory. As the tangled threads of the past and present intertwine, Gray must unravel the ties between the deceased men and the infamous inferno. Suspicion falls on Armitage, but Gray, driven by his own painful loss, reluctantly sets aside his doubts to aid the grieving father. In this gripping tale of suffering, betrayal, and buried secrets, Gray finds himself torn between loyalty and suspicion as he delves into a labyrinth of interconnected mysteries, racing against time to expose the truth before the flames of vengeance consume them all. Burn the Evidence is the second book in the series featuring Detective Sergeant Solomon Gray. Pick it up now to discover whether Gray can escape his past in this taut detective crime thriller, perfect for fans of Ian Rankin, Stuart MacBride, LJ Ross, and Peter James. ... deeply emotional, a dark rollercoaster ride.
