For sixteen years, Oxford has lived in fear of the Midwinter Butcher - an unidentified killer leaving behind ritualistically mutilated animals and chilling messages. Each act has coincided with the anniversary of DI Joseph Stone's son's death, making the case deeply personal for the brooding Irish detective.
Living alone on a narrowboat along Oxford's mist-shrouded canals, Stone has pursued the Butcher relentlessly, but the killer has always slipped through his grasp.
Until now.
A disturbing pattern begins to emerge, suggesting the murders are no longer symbolic. A darker ritual is unfolding - and Stone's daughter may be the next victim.
Can he stop a psychopath before the final act is complete? Or will the next name on the killer's list be too close to home?
The Dead of Midwinter is a tense and atmospheric British detective novel, blending the grit of a police procedural with the psychological suspense of a serial killer thriller. Set against the haunting backdrop of Oxford, it delivers compelling characters, dark secrets, and a story with real heart beneath the menace. Perfect for fans of JD Kirk, LJ Ross, Rhys Dylan, and TG Reid.
