'The plot is gripping and the twists are jaw-dropping' ***** READER REVIEW

Even on the most desirable street, there's a dark side . . .

The Hill is the kind of place everyone wants to live: luxurious, exclusive and safe. But now someone is breaking and entering these Cheshire homes one by one, and DS Leo Brady suspects the burglar is looking for something, or someone, in particular.

Over the border in Wales, DC Ffion Morgan recovers the body of an estate agent from the lake. There's no love lost between Ffion and estate agents, but who hated this one enough to want her dead - and why?

As their cases collide, Ffion and Leo discover people will pay a high price to keep their secrets behind closed doors . . .

Its strange, I was only thinking about this series the other day, wondering if we could expect more, then a week or two later this came up on NetGalley. I love this, a good story. lots of twists and turns, some stuff I saw coming and some stuff that came out of left field. Possibly the best so far. I received an ARC from the publisher via NetGalley.
