From Anne Cleeland
comes the first in a captivating new mystery series, following the
perilous exploits of two Scotland Yard detectives as they track down
London's most elusive killer. . . First-year detective Kathleen Doyle
and Chief Inspector Michael Sinclair, Lord Acton, are a most unlikely
pair. An Irish redhead of humble beginnings and modest means, Doyle is
the antithesis of Acton, the British lord who has established himself as
a brilliant but enigmatic figure with a knack for solving London's most
high profile homicides. But Acton senses something exceptional beneath
Doyle's awkward naivete and taps her to help him with his
investigations. And her spot-on intuition is just what he needs to solve
a chilling string of murders. . .
When a horse trainer is found
dead at a racetrack, Doyle and Acton begin interviewing witnesses and
the victim's associates, but the killer continues to strike and they're
left with more questions than answers. Their investigation is further
muddled by their colleagues at CID Headquarters, whose career-driven
jealousies and workplace blunders could jeopardize the case--and their
nosing into the nature of Doyle and Acton's after hours relationship
could lay bare the most classified information of all. . .
Perhaps
the trainer was the target of a jilted lover on a killing spree. Or
maybe the victims were collateral damage in a political coup gone awry.
As the murders pile up, Doyle and Acton uncover something far more
sadistic than they could have imagined, and now that they know too much,
they'll find themselves squarely in the crosshairs of a cold-blooded
killer.
