THE CAERPHILLY MOUNTAIN KILLINGS a gripping murder mystery

Detective Jemima Huxley gets a frantic call from a man. His wife is missing. She went for drinks with a friend and neither of them made it home.

The husband tells her, "You don't know me, but you know my wife, Violet Watkins."

It's a name Jemima had done her best to forget.

Six years ago, Violet was the victim of serial stalker and predator, Byron Toombes. He was her next-door neighbour. And he thought he could get away with anything because he worked for the police.

Jemima tried to protect her. But Jemima and Violet only just made it out alive, and Toombes escaped. The case has haunted her ever since.

Is Toombes back to finish what he started?

On a cold, isolated Welsh mountainside, DI Huxley might finally face her nemesis.

Readers of Simon McCleave, Rachel McLean, Ann Cleeves, Helen H. Durrant, Joy Ellis, Angela Marsons, L.J. Ross, J.M. Dalgliesh, Patricia Gibney, Mark Edwards and Lynda La Plante will love Gaynor Torrance's feisty and flawed protagonist DI Jemima Huxley.
