Murder in the Autumn Shadows

Bol

Newcastle is rotting from the inside out. And only one detective is willing to look. When a young woman is found arranged beneath an oak tree in Exhibition Park, a strange symbol carved into the bark above her, DI Liam Carter recognises the mark instantly. He's seen it before, three years ago, on a case everyone in the department would rather forget. The case that broke him. Jennifer Stanley wasn't just another victim. She was a journalist, and she was close to something. Something that links a missing-girls cold case file to a property tycoon, a charity benefactor, and a quiet network of people who have made an art of vanishing inconvenient women. As Carter pulls at the thread, the city pulls back. Witnesses recant. Files disappear. Allies turn out to have prices. And the higher the trail climbs, the more obvious it becomes that someone inside the force is helping it climb away from the truth. >Murder in the Autumn Shadows is a dark, unflinching British crime thriller. A novel about the cost of the truth, the rot of power, and the kind of detective who keeps walking when everyone else looks away.
