Publisher's Synopsis
A respectable, middle-aged housewife. An ambitious young lawyer. A student burlesque dancer. Three women with nothing in common - except for the fact that someone has sent them a macabre Valentine's Day gift; a pig's heart pierced by an arrow. Is this a case of serious harm intended? Or just a malicious prank? Detective Inspector Olbeck thinks there might be something more sinister behind it but his colleague Detective Sergeant Kate Redman is too busy mourning the departure of her partner Tin to New York to worry too much about the case. Until one of the women receives a death threat... Valentine is a novella in the best-selling Kate Redman Mystery series by crime writer Celina Grace.
