This is the third book in the dark, edge-of-your-seat Carmarthen Crime thriller series set in the stunning West Wales countryside.

*Previously published as A Cold Cold Heart*

Review:

This is book 3 of the Carmarthen Crime series, but the first I had read. It starts off with giving you multiple sides of the story- the police and the killer. Very quickly the readers senses that the victim has fallen into a trap she won't be able to get out of, but knowing that her dad is the inspector, means the story might nor unfold the way the reader initially thinks, and it doesn't. When he has to take a back seat, it's up to his team to solve the mystery and save his daughter. A page turner at the end, this is a 4 book series to sink your teeth into!
