A BRAND-NEW CRIME THRILLER SET IN YORKSHIRE FROM BESTSELLING AUTHOR EMMY ELLIS.
A battered body is discovered in a field at Hawthorn Farm. The victim is Maureen Frost, a well-known elderly villager, and her death shocks the tight-knit community to its core.
As a fellow resident of the pretty village of Upton-cum-Studley, Detective Inspector Anna James knows Maureen. She also knows Maureen and her husband Albert have been locked in a long-standing feud with Toby Potter.
Toby has been in love with Maureen for over fifty years. They were going to get married - until Maureen spotted Albert and began seeing him behind Toby's back.
But Albert's far from the perfect husband. He's controlling and abusive and has a sinister past of his own . . .
To understand the present, Anna must look to the past. All while going undercover to expose a mole within the police force tied to the powerful Northern Kings gang. At the same time Anna's trying to suppress her growing feelings for handsome but roguish gang member Joshua 'Parole' Cribbins.
Anna's about to walk into the lion's den. Will she make it out alive . . . ?
This utterly gripping crime thriller is perfect for fans of Martina Cole, Angela Marsons, Helen H. Durrant and Charlie Gallagher.
Please note this book contains themes of baby loss that some readers may find upsetting.
