Spoiler:

Detective Sergeant Gil Mayo has a problem on his hands.

Even quiet community of Lavenstock isn't immune from the threat of drugs and his team are getting nowhere in combating the town’s problem.

But their inquiries take a drastic turn when a member of a well-known and respected family is killed.

As both Mayo and DI Abigail Moon plunge into the investigation of this murder, and as more and more of the unsavoury details of the victim's private life are revealed, it becomes not simply a question of who had a motive to kill him, but who didn't.

Things become more and more complicated as Abigail’s personal life begins to interfere with the murder investigation as a man from her past becomes involved in the case.

As Mayo and Abigail start to uncover the truth, it becomes clear the murder was not an end, but a beginning - the first link in a chain that will lead to more deaths...

'Killing Me Softly' is an expertly-plotted crime thriller that will keep readers gripped from the first page to the final twist.
