Meet the Met’s Detective Martha Munro, in the most pulse-pounding page-turner you’ll read this summer.
First comes the win. Then comes the catch . . .
For years, Martha Munro dreamed of taking down her mother’s killer. The charming, and rotten-to-the-core, DCI Tony Green.
Martha exposed his corruption. The crimes he tried so hard to bury.
Now he’s back with a chilling new obsession: burying Martha.
A string of threatening letters lands on the doorstep of Martha’s cozy Victorian terrace.
Scrawled in red ink, the message is always the same: Die, bitch. Die.
It’s game on between Martha and her old adversary — and Tony’s playing dirtier than ever.
Before long, Martha realizes that someone is leaking secrets to Tony. Secrets that only those closest to Martha could possibly know.
Can she hunt Tony down? Before he catches her first…
Before taking up writing, Michael Leese was a national newspaper journalist for over 25 years, with the last part of his career working for the London Evening Standard. The most memorable stories he covered ranged from Tiananmen Square, the fall of the Berlin Wall, the death of
Princess Diana, the 9/11 attacks and the two Gulf wars.
In the latter part of his career, Mike was a news editor. In this role he gained insights into many specialties from crime and court reporting, to political and science news and the behind-the-scenes working of government, the City and other institutions. Mike’s passion for news and
current affairs remains very strong and influences the writing of his books.
My thoughts: This was very good, Martha and her pals are having to work outside of the law, her nemesis, former detective Tony Green has way too many eyes on the inside, she doesn’t trust this new task force to be clean of his malign influence, especially as someone is feeding him information.
The two MI5 agents on the task force don’t trust her, they think she might even be working with Green, a ridiculous prospect for Martha, he killed her mother. Thankfully Harry, Julie and the rest of their team are hot on his trail, but he’s still coming for Martha and she might have to do some things that are pretty dangerous to keep her daughter, Betty, safe.
Gripping and shocking, I was completely hooked from page one and cannot wait for the next one.
