Summary

When you sell your soul, the devil gives no refunds....

When an old man is burned alive in a sleepy ex-mining village, Detective Chief Inspector Ryan is called in to investigate. He soon discovers that, beneath the facade of a close-knit community, the burn from decades-old betrayal still smoulders. When everyone had a motive, can he unravel the secrets of the past before the killer strikes again?

Meanwhile, back at Northumbria CID, trouble is brewing with rumours of a mole in Ryan’s department. With everyone under suspicion, can he count on anybody but himself?

Murder and mystery are peppered with romance and humour in this fast-paced crime whodunnit set amidst the spectacular Northumbrian landscape.

Excellent as always

I’ve waited a while for these two books to come out and wasn’t disappointed, it was like catching up with old friends. Jonathan Keeble portrays each character perfectly and I was gripped from beginning to end. I’m sad to have read them both so quickly.

Yet another brilliant book.

I love how the narrator brings out the voices in the characters and how the author has discovered each character. I cant wait to start the next book.
