Description

Includes the following:

The Ice House
When an unidentified, rotting corpse is discovered in the old ice house at Streech Grange, the assumption is that the body is that of David Maybury, who went missing 10 years before. As village rumours hint of lesbianism and witchcraft, Sergeant Andy McLoughlin's investigation, focusing on Maybury's ex-wife, Phoebe, and the two women who live with her in the Grange, uncovers numerous secrets - some of which people would rather have left buried...

The Echo
When the dead body of a tramp is found in the garage of Amanda Powell's exclusive Docklands flat, investigative journalist Mike Deacon soon begins to suspect that there is more to this than he first thought. This hunch is justified when he finds out that Amanda's husband disappeared some years ago, while under suspicion of a £10 million fraud - a case which remains unsolved...

The Dark Room
In hospital, photographer Jinx Kingsley wakes from a coma after a car crash - a failed suicide attempt, prompted by her fiance Leo jilting her to elope with Jinx's lifelong best friend, Meg.

The discovery of Leo and Meg's bodies - brutally murdered in the same manner as Jinx's first husband - makes Jinx the prime suspect. Then, with the help of eminent neuroscientist Dr Alan Protheroe, some memories begin to surface. Memories of desperation and paralysing terror...

The Sculptress
Five years ago, Olive Martin pleaded guilty to killing and dismembering her sister and her mother, earning herself the chilling nickname 'The Sculptress'. Journalist Rosalind Lee needs to write a best-selling book and Olive is the perfect subject.

Nothing has prepared her for her meeting with the obese killer and Rosalind is drawn into a strange relationship of manipulation and mutual trust. Despite Olive's protestations of guilty, Rosalind is convinced that she is hiding something - perhaps even her innocence. But if Olive didn't commit the murders, who is she protecting and why?

The Scold's Bride
It seemed like just another suicide. But what made Dr Sarah Blakeney shiver with the scold's bridle strapped to the old woman's face. In the Middle Ages the metal bridle had been an instrument of torture and restraint - curbing the tongues of nagging women. Mathilda Gillespie had been a strong-minded, some would say ruthless, woman. So what did it point to now? Remorse, self-hatred or... murder?
