Hope to Die

Description

The new 'impossible to predict' detective thriller from the Sunday Times and Richard & Judy Bookclub bestselling author Cara Hunter Midnight. A callout to an isolated farm outside Oxford. A body, shot at point blank range in the kitchen. It looks like a burglary gone wrong, but DI Adam Fawley suspects there's something more to it. Who exactly was the aggressor here? When the police discover a connection to a high-profile case from years ago, involving a child's murder and an alleged miscarriage of justice, the press go wild. Suddenly Fawley's team are under more scrutiny than ever before. And when you dig up the past, you're sure to find a few skeletons...
