A gripping crime thriller set in Yorkshire, perfect for fans of Peter Robinson and Ian Rankin. Will the truth be buried with the dead? ' Taut, topical and tense' Adam Hamdy When DS Joe Romano first meets Ana Dobrescu she' s nervous, in serious danger, and clearly needs help. The next time Romano sees her, she' s dead. There was nothing more he could have done, but that' s cold comfort for Romano. He' s determined to catch Ana' s killer. Although the prime suspect, her millionaire boyfriend, is in a coma. With the help of his larger-than-life partner Rita Scannon-Aktar, Romano begins to piece together a puzzle that places Ana at the centre of something much bigger than they could have imagined. But while they' re hunting a murderer, those higher up are more concerned about the money. So it' s up to Romano to get justice for Ana. And whatever she knew, he' ll just have to pray that she didn' t take her secrets to the grave. ' An incredibly fast paced piece of crime fiction that kept me turning the pages. Overall a cracking read!' Karen Woods, author of Tracks ' Fast paced and relevant . . . will keep you captivated from beginning to end' Liz Mistry, author of the Detective Nikki Parekh series
