Publisher's Synopsis
This volume starts with 'Cut Short', a book which finds DI Steel relocating to the quiet, rural town of Woolsmarsh. She's not expecting much to happen here but is soon on the trail of a twisted killer who preys on local women. 'Dead End' has a corpse being discovered with its tongue cut out and then a witness is blinded and murdered; and 'Road Closed' finds all kinds of murders taking place. Could the hit-and-run and arson be linked?
