A missing nurse who no one seemed to like.

It’s Detective Joanna Piercy’s first day back at work after her promotion. You could cut the tension with a knife. The rest of the team are more than a little bit jealous.

But there’s a missing persons case to get on with.

DI Piercy arrives at the missing nurse’s house. But it’s too late.

Marilyn Smith is dead. Spreadeagled on the bed, all dressed up for a date she didn’t keep. DI Piercy is convinced that Marilyn was murdered even though the post-mortem is inconclusive.

But if there was foul play involved, how did the killer get past her dog, who was so protective of his mistress? And how come her dog was just about the only creature who liked this nurse?

Joanna’s boss is breathing down her neck to close the case. She must catch a killer to keep her job.

A THRILLING MYSTERY THAT WILL HAVE YOU HOOKED FROM THE FIRST PAGE.

An accomplished police procedural perfect with stunningly realized heroine, perfect for fans of Elly Griffiths, Joy Ellis, L.J. Ross, Lynda La Plante, Ruth Rendell, Jane Adams and Helen H. Durrant.

THE DETECTIVE
DI Joanna Piercy, newly promoted to inspector, is already an outsider in this remote moorland town. And now she has to deal with the ire of her male colleagues who were passed over for the job. But Joanna knows her own mind, and doesn’t need friends to get the job done. She’s gotten used to them calling her the ‘Ice Maiden’ and the ‘Snow Queen’ by now.

THE SETTING
Leek is a bustling historic market town nestled in the Staffordshire Moorlands. The surrounding area of high, bleak moors are peppered with isolated farms, small holdings and cottages. This small town and its surrounding rugged moorlands, complete with spectacular views, are full of local character — and danger.
