About this ebook
'A page-turning read' PENNY HANCOCK
'Like Nicci French, Kate Rhodes excels at character, pace and sense of place.' ERIN KELLY
'Quentin is one of a cast of really believable and entertaining characters and both the plot and the writing keep one thoroughly engaged throughout' DAILY MAIL
THEIR SINS ARE NOT FORGIVEN.
At the height of a summer heatwave, a killer stalks the City of London.
The avenging angel leaves behind a scattering of feathers with each body - but why these victims? What were their sins?
Psychologist Alice Quentin only agrees to help out on the case because she owes Detective Don Burns a favour. But soon she finds herself deep in the toxic heart of the Square Mile . . . A place where money means more than life - and no one can be counted innocent.
WHAT READERS ARE SAYING:
'An exciting and complex thriller with lots of twists' 5*
'Second in the series this author just gets better and better! Twists, turns, holding of breath . . . it's got it all' 5*
'Well written, compelling, couldn't put it down. there's a dry wit here which makes the most unlikely completely likely!' 5*
'Yet another great book from Kate Rhodes. I was gripped from the first page' 5*
'another damn good read from a very good author. I'm definitely putting book 3 in the TBR pile' 5*
