APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
Val McDermid is now ten books into her best-selling Dr Tony Hill and DCI Carol Jordan series but she still finds exciting and revelatory ways to delve deeper into their psyches, motives and demons. On a rural country road, a burning car lights up the night sky and a thrilling hunt for the ‘Wedding Killer’ begins. As the plot unfolds the queen of crime presents Hill and Jordan with their most haunting dilemma yet. McDermid cleverly ramps up the tension with short, pithy chapters and cunningly wrong-foots you until the very end. You’ll be reading in every spare moment you have.
