Bruce, Alison - Free Library Land Online

A fresh start in a place you hate. Even tougher with a killer watching... Jane Osborne left Cambridge and vowed she'd never return. An unexpected twist of fortune results in DC Goodhew bringing her back to the remnants of her old life and a confrontation with the man who killed her sister. Meanwhile a burning car on the outskirts of Cambridge leads to the discovery of the body of its owner, Paul Marshall. There seems nothing to connect it to either a recent assault, or to Jane Osborne, until a shocking discovery rips Goodhew's investigation apart.

I'm looking forward to more of his investigations."—*Minneapolis Star-Tribune* "Bruce's superior prose elevates this above many other contemporary British police procedurals."**—Publishers Weekly

"Smart, ambitious.... A pleasingly different police procedural."—Kirkus Reviews
