APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
Detective Chief Inspector Adam Fawley returns for the seventh page-turning instalment of Cara Hunter’s Oxford-set crime thriller series. Making a Killing harks back to the first book in the series, Close to Home, cleverly casting the 2016 murder at the centre of that story—that of eight-year-old Daisy Mason—in a radically different light. Nick Vincent, producer of true-crime show Infamous, sets in motion a chain of events that leads Fawley to realise he came to the wrong conclusion about Daisy’s disappearance. As he and his team apply fresh evidence to everything they thought they knew about the case, twists abound, coupled with Hunter’s trademark brilliant characterisation and a fascinating exploration of the true-crime world, in which deaths are treated as mere entertainment fodder. Despite its links to an earlier title, this novel stands alone as a captivating story that will keep you guessing every step of the way.
