DISCOVER YOUR NEXT FAVOURITE MURDER MYSTERY SERIES BY ONE OF BRITAIN'S MOST EMINENT CRIME WRITERS.

In the small town of Broadminster, Detective David Webb faces a ruthless murderer targeting divorcees.

Webb is called to the home of recently separated forty-year-old Linda Meadowes. Her body has been discovered with a stab wound to the heart.

Despite the brutality of the crime, there are no signs of forced entry or robbery. The only clue left behind is the word 'Delilah' scrawled in red lipstick.

What is the significance of the name? And without a murder weapon, how will Webb track down the killer?

The investigation takes an unnerving turn when gruesome objects begin showing up at another woman's flat: a dead pigeon, a dismembered moth.

Webb fears she may be the next victim.

Perfect for fans of Peter James, Joy Ellis, Ann Cleeves, Roger Silverwood, Roy Lewis, Agatha Christie, or Faith Martin.

THE DETECTIVE
Detective Chief Inspector David Webb is in his mid-forties with plentiful brown hair, a hard mouth, and bleak grey eyes. He possesses a tenacious and observant nature, with a knack for delving into intricate details. Webb's determination shines through as he navigates his investigations, evaluating suspects and analysing clues with a touch of scepticism. He combines his pragmatic and focused approach to work with an artistic appreciation of beauty.

THE SETTING
The fictional county of Broadshire, in the south-west corner of England, exudes charm and picturesque allure. It's populated by a smattering of idyllic, historic villages - their proximity to the Cotswolds apparent in the honey-coloured stone cottages and the increasingly hilly surrounding countryside.
