Description

Edwina's death is brutal, a swift and silent killer who leaves no clues. Her murder seems unsolvable until a casual comment sends Inspector Alex Cameron and his seasoned team trawling through the dead woman's childhood. Raised in a poverty-scarred part of Auckland, Edwina was a battler. Life revolved around the church and her mundane job unpacking vegetables. Meanwhile, a new generation gentrifed her suburb. After winning a gym membership, she lost weight, got a new hairstyle, clothes, joband made a new friend, Rose. Can Alex Cameron uncover the link in time to save the next victim? And preserve his own reputation? The murky past has left a shadow over Edmund Street. Everyone and no one is a suspect, until... A riveting murder mystery packed with true-to life characters. The twists and turns of a police procedural and the suspense of a psychological thriller. I couldn't put it down.' Leigh Redhead. Award winning crime writer.
