CAN History repeat itself?

dead time cover


Synopsis:

Someone is recreating murders from the past; from DCI Lambert’s past


A man is found electrocuted in his bath. Accident? Suicide? Apparently not. Attached to the body is a handwritten note; all it says is ‘DCI Lambert. And something about the case rings a bell…
Lambert, shaken by past and present, is put on notice when a major prisoner escapes. Is there a connection? And why are MI5 getting involved? Before the investigation is over, Lambert will be pushed to his very limits... And beyond.
How far would you go for justice? And what would you do to save your family?

Review:
What do you do when you're innocent, but murders keep happening, and your name is left on the scene? And when those murders are EXACTLY as ones you've worked all through your career, so you get sidelined, or do you solve the case before you get arrested? DCI Lambert does just that- he tackles the dilemma by working in the shadows and with his former colleague, to see if the breakout and the cases are related. This 4th book in the series is a roller coaster, you'll find yourself staying up quite late to see who actually is the murder, so be warned!  

Special:
This book is ALSO on sale on Kindle right now for only $2.99! 
AND
