A COMPELLING MYSTERY FULL OF TWISTS AND TURNS.
Fifteen years ago a teenage boy, Teddy Bartlett, left a mysterious note and went to a woods on the outskirts of London. In the forest twilight he was beaten to a pulp and left damaged for life. The police never discovered who did it or why he was attacked.
Now, the boy’s father, recently returned from Australia, wants to find out what really happened to his son. He hires private detective Tyrone Swift to investigate the tragic crime.
Swift quickly realises that the Bartletts are a family with dark secrets. Teddy’s seemingly devoted sister Sheila, his estranged brother, and his father Rowan, who left his wife for her sister, are not what they seem.
Swift himself has his own family and relationship issues . . . plus someone is out to get him, targeting him with an escalating series of attacks. Could it be a disgruntled client or a criminal he came across in his days as a police inspector?
In a thrilling conclusion, Swift will face losing everything he loves as he closes in on the perpetrators.
Blood Secrets is a beautifully written mystery that will have you gripped from start to heart-stopping finish. This is a story of secrets, abandonment, repressed sexuality, dysfunctional families and brutality, with a hint of hope at the end.
Perfect for fans of Robert Galbraith, Paula Hawkins, P.D. James, Gillian Flynn, or Ruth Rendell.
WHAT READERS ARE SAYING ABOUT BLOOD SECRETS:
“OMG this was so good, I can’t believe that I just started this today and I finished it in one sitting, I just had to know what was going to happen next, if the case of Teddy Bartlett was ever going to be closed and why he was beaten to a pulp and left damaged for life.” Elizabeth M.
“There are twists and turns never expected, and a couple surprise side trips along the way. Lots of interesting characters and settings. A very good book.” Teresa J.
