Into Death's Arms: A British Murder Mystery - Paperback

One night, one mistake, one price to pay...

A retired couple venture out for an early morning dog walk in a picturesque Lincolnshire village. The husband keeps his inner-most thoughts to himself. The wife, however, has something to tell him - a secret that is about to change their lives forever...

When DCI Freya Bloom is called to a crime scene early one Sunday morning, little does she know that the friendships she has counted on so many times will be called into question and her time in the Lincolnshire fens could be coming to an untimely end...along with her career.

The victim, a retired woman named Linda Wilson, lies at the edge of a small forest atop the Lincoln edge, a steep escarpment that runs throughout Lincolnshire. With the winter storms hammering down, the team works hard to close in on the killer before the wild landscape works against them and any evidence is washed away forever.

However, only hours into the investigation, Freya learns that not everyone who wears a police uniform is on her side - lies and allegations from corrupt police officers leaves a trail for her to follow. But when the one man she can trust turns his back on her, she must face her ordeal alone while solving what is to be one of the most complex investigations of her career.

With the victim's husband missing, the team unearth a web of lies and the terrible reality hits home - Linda Wilson wasn't the killer's first victim...and she won't be the last.

Into Death's Arms is the twelfth book in the addictive Wild Fens Murder Mystery series set in rural Lincolnshire. Fans of Jack Cartwright also enjoy books by JM Dalgliesh, Ann Cleeves, Rachel McLean, Tim Sullivan, and LJ Ross.
