Cold Blood

With the skill of a natural story-teller, Theresa Monsour has created a tense, highly-credible and brilliantly atmospheric thriller peopled with wholly three-dimensional characters.

Life gets tough again for Shannon Flinder when her best friend is murdered, and she comes to believe that the police have arrested the wrong person. So who did kill Jenny Fong - and why? Things get worse when Shannon's bitter enemy Cindy Nightingale is put in charge of the murder inquiry.

An escaped killer with a grudge causes chaos and manages to elude capture. His mission is to get the lawyer who helped send him to prison - how can Shannon protect herself when the police can't?

But Shannon's more interested in solving her friend's murder - and, of course, in staying alive . . .
