Flesh and blood

McCrery, Nigel, 1953- author

Overview

\"Josie could see a faint light seeping down from the top of the stairs. She rang the bell again and knocked sharply. Still nothing. 'Brenda, it's me! Josie Dall-'. Her last word was cut-off and muffled as a hand from behind clamped a piece of cloth hard over her mouth. She tried to swivel around, but the grip was too tight, and then the smell of the chloroform overwhelmed her sinuses and she sank into darkness ... During the murder investigation of a teenage boy, DCI Mark Lapslie's methods come under fire and his prime suspect, Alastair Tulley, walks free. Meanwhile another body is discovered and Lapslie and his team are quickly on the trail of a voracious serial killer. Even after DNA evidence links the crimes to a different man, Lapslie remains convinced of Tulley's guilt but will he be able to prove it? One year earlier, dedicated young journalist, Josie Dallyn has stumbled over a chain of very similar cases. Whilst she is digging deeper and deeper into the truth behind the mysterious deaths, she is getting herself into more danger than she could have ever anticipated and her life is being threatened by some very dark forces.\"--Publisher description.
