Description
Autumn 2004
In Bampton, Derbyshire, Lena Fisher is arrested for suffocating her husband, Andrew.
Spring 2016
A year after Lena's release from prison, Andrew is found dead in a disused mortuary.
Who was the man Lena killed twelve years ago, and who committed the second murder? When Lena disappears, her sister, Kat, sets out to follow a trail of clues delivered by a mysterious teenage boy. Kat must uncover the truth - before there's another death . . .
A Deadly Thaw confirms Sarah Ward's place as one of the most exciting new crime writers.
The latest D.C. Childs mystery is like 'Happy Valley' in novel form, with all the grit and plot twists of the author's first, In Bitter Chill.
