Publisher Description
No peace and goodwill to all men here in Manchester...
It's the countdown to Christmas and Sal Kilkenny is exhausted even thinking about the festive season - her life as a single mother is hectic at the best of times. So when she is asked to investigate a suicide that a grieving family cannot come to terms with, she turns the case down.
Eventually, and against her better judgement, Sal is persuaded to look into the woman's last hours and is appalled to discover how little the authorities had investigated her death. And why would a woman so petrified of heights choose to jump from the top of Manchester's Arndale Centre car park?

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Sal Kilkenny has a lot on her plate: she's a "single mum" of two with a brand new beau, juggling parenting duties with two new cases for her private investigation practice and to make matters more complicated, Christmas is just around the corner. On one end of Manchester, a family refuses to believe the coroner's report establishing their mother's cause of death as suicide, while on the other, a mother fears her son has a double life; only one case will lead to real danger, but both will deeply move Sal in Cath Staincliffe's (Looking for Trouble) Towers of Silence.
