Drawn to Murder: Book 1 in the Batterton Police Series

Rita is an artist, still recovering from an attack by three men. Deborah is a nurse and a killer, as much at ease ending people’s lives as prolonging them. Maybe, if they hadn’t been lovers, it wouldn’t have gone beyond talk. But they are. And it does.

The police start finding bodies. And more bodies. Because, once you start killing people, it’s difficult to stop. New names get added to the list. All men, and all sexually interfered with. Why not? That’s what the three men did to Rita. Revenge is sweet.

PC Jamie Pearson and Rita were teenagers together once. Jamie wants to find Rita. Which is also the aim of reporter Bernadette Spence. Jamie wants Rita’s soul and Bernadette wants her story. And Deborah wants both of them dead.

Review NetGalley Reviewer Nadine: 4 Stars This book had me stumped. Sitting smug and thinking I had it all thought out, the author put me in my place. Finally we have a thriller that will keep you on your toes. I truly enjoyed myself and will be recommending it to anyone I see for the next few months.

Review NetGalley Reviewer Leila B: 5 Stars What a fantastic read. So gripping from the start and fast pace. With a few murders and serial killers on the loose, the story kept me hooked until the last page. Definitely an author to keep my eye on. Can't wait for book 2.

Review NetGalley Reviewer Aria H: 4 Stars I really enjoyed reading this book, it was gripping and so unpredictable, I couldn't work it out and when I thought I had worked it out it shocked me all over again. Such a good story and great characters. I really liked it
