Lay Them To Rest: Three Murderous Novellas

Gripping crime fiction box set.

Murder, whether meticulously planned or the result of impulse, is always a depraved, selfish act. Money, jealousy and rejection are often the drivers of such evil. In this eclectic collection of THREE fast-paced crime novellas, no stone is left unturned, no clue unexplored after murderers steal the lives of complete innocents.

Lay Them To Rest brings together stories that will introduce you to author Belinda Bennett's work. Boasting the original, dark and strange, it features the following popular, stand-alone reads:

HIRED HANDS

Mandy: She was just a teenager when she climbed over her boyfriend's bloodied, lifeless body and ran. Running was a mistake - a regret that stalked every day of the two decades she sat staring at peeling paint in a lonely prison cell.

When freedom finally calls, it comes at a terrible price. What promised to be a happy homecoming is shot down by a sickening mystery only she can solve.

Danielle: The day the police finally come isn’t the end of her nightmare... It is just the beginning.

The timid shadow of her overbearing husband, she is caught up in a tangled web of murder and lies. And there is no way out. What police find at the bottom of the garden turns the spotlight full circle. Instead of looking at her husband, they are now shifting the focus of their inquiry - to her.

Every aspect of Danielle’s tortured life is put under the microscope by police investigating the disappearance of an elderly couple. Nobody seems to care that Danielle has been a missing person herself since she was eight years old.

A shocking portrayal of lies, murder and more lies. Who will you believe?

ONE DEAD WIFE

Tara Swift has been missing for almost twenty-four hours before anyone thinks to raise the alarm. Even more disturbing is the fact that a stalker has made her life a misery for two decades.

Ever since she was wrongly accused of abducting a three-year-old girl, Tara has led a tormented life. Now she has vanished without a trace.

As police comb the cliffs and countryside around a holiday park in Dorset, they are convinced they will find a body. DI Brock Clarke has told everyone to keep an open mind, but his is made up. She is dead.

LILY'S GRAVE

Lily Jones is ruined. The teenager is bloody, bruised and running for her life. Only one person can save her - passer-by Joan Hughes.

Their worlds collide during a chance encounter in the dead of night. It isn’t long before one is dead.

A twisty, dark and shocking small town thriller that will keep you guessing until the very end.

Set in Honiton, Devon, during 1944.
