The Dryslwyn Castle Killings cover

Synopsis:

Successful novelist Mia is being stalked. Photos of her and her four-year-old daughter arrive in untraceable emails that demand Mia perform various tasks or else . . . Terrified, Mia tries to escape, but the killer follows her all the way to Italy. In desperation, she returns home, but nowhere is safe.

Meanwhile, DI Gravel is investigating the murder of three women. The detective’s last case pushed him to new extremes. Now with his health failing and his career at an end, what lengths will Gravel go to in order to catch a vicious killer?

Once you’ve crossed the line, can you ever turn back?


Review

This is book 4 in the Carmarthen Crime series, and I read it after book 3, but that is not required. Gravel is still recovering from the health issues in the previous book and his medically forced retirement. Similar to the previous book, in a way, it's about how a troubled person can manipulate not only a persons emotions, but their beliefs and actions.When Misa requests Gravel's help, he has to try to return to a spark of his former self to help keep her safe. Not as much of a roller coaster as the previous book, but it keeps you reading!
