Beschreibung

Wealthy heiress Kerenza Trezise was about to marry the man she loved...until she killed herself in front of the entire wedding party. Private investigator Blake Hollow is hired to find out why. Physically and emotionally damaged by a near-death encounter with a serial killer, Blake knows this case is an opportunity to relaunch her struggling P.I. business. But as she attempts to infiltrate one of Cornwall's richest families at their impressive Frenchman's Creek estate, she learns that the Trezises have their own dark secrets to protect, and a shocking legacy of madness, horror, and death. Worse still, they'll do anything to stop Blake's private investigation from revealing the truth, including deception, intimidation, and perhaps even murder. They say family is forever. But they have never met the Trezise family... 'Down in the Blood' is a fast-paced and creepy Gothic murder mystery that draws on Cornish folklore and the occult. Fans of British crime fiction will love tenacious private detective Blake Hollow as she delves into another confounding murder case.
