About this listen
Detective Inspector Geraldine Steel returns in an exhilarating case of grisly murder in London. When a successful businessman is brutally murdered, the police suspect his glamorous wife and her young lover. Then the victim's business partner suffers the same gruesome fate and when yet another body is discovered, seemingly unrelated to the first two, the police are baffled. The only clue is DNA that leads them to two women: one dead, the other in prison. With a steady stream of bodies arriving at the morgue, can DI Geraldine Steel find the killer before another deadly attack?
Leigh Russell studied at the University of Kent and now works as a secondary school teacher, specialising in supporting pupils with Specific Learning Difficulties. Her first novel, Cut Short (2009) was shortlisted for the CWA New Blood Dagger Award for Best First Novel. Road Closed (2010) was listed as a Top Read on Eurocrime and, with Dead End (2011), series protagonist Geraldine Steel became the #1 best-selling female sleuth on Amazon Kindle.

Disappointing
What could have been a good story was spoilt by:
Repetition of previous narratives and the lack of attention to detail.
Worst of all now the second book with Steel’s sidekick DS Sam Hayley.
Her comments are crass at the best of times and displays a lack of common sense and credibility as a detective. Detective !!! and a Sargent!!! really. She needs to be slung out or demoted to a beat cop.
Obviously Leigh Russell need to do her homework.

Another great book from Leigh Russell
Loved this book.
I’m working my way through to Geraldine Steel series in order.
One slight amendment to this book was that the chapters didn’t have titles which I think is an improvement.
In previous books this has given an indication as to what would happen in the chapter.
Really enjoyed this just as much as I have the previous books and I’m looking forward to the next one.

Badly written and narrated
I really should not have downloaded another Geraldine Steel book after being so disappointed by books 2 and 3. However I really loved book 1 and felt in the mood for an easy listening police procedural. I am afraid that the quality of the writing and narration of this book were so poor that I felt embarrassed to even be listening to it and did not finish it.
