Do you love twisty murder mysteries? Meet Tara Thorpe - the clue to a puzzling local murder has landed right on her doorstep. Perfect for fans of Faith Martin, LJ Ross and Joy Ellis.

As the sun rises, a wealthy young woman - Samantha Seabrook - is found drowned in the ornamental fountain of a deserted Cambridge courtyard, the only clue - an antique silver chain wound tightly around her throat.

It's Tara Thorpe's job to discover what happened to Miss Seabrook - but the case becomes personal when she learns that Samantha had been receiving death threats... rather like the one that landed on Tara's doorstep the night the woman died.

Together with Detective Inspector Garstin Blake, Tara tracks the killer to the dank and dangerous fens on the outskirts of the city. But there's something Tara can't quite admit to Blake about her past - and it could make all the difference to whether they live... or die.

An absolutely gripping page-turner that will keep you hooked until the very last page. The first in a series of unputdownable Cambridge mysteries featuring Thorpe and Blake.
