Produktbeschreibung
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.
Autorenporträt
Gaynor Torrance lives near Cardiff with her husband and their rescue cat, Cleo. The area is the setting for her Detective Inspector Jemima Huxley series of books. Like Gaynor, Jemima has a bachelor's degree in psychology. Though, apart from them both having a keen interest in human behaviour, that's where any similarity ends. When she's not writing or glued to her Kindle, Gaynor enjoys listening to music, playing the piano, walking, travelling, and eating far too much chocolate.
