Valerie Keogh
Works of: Fiction
In the Dublin suburbs, a police detective copes with a series of inexplicable crimes—and the return of a woman from his past . . .
A murder followed by a series of random, motiveless crimes has left Detective Garda Sergeant Mike West and his team puzzled.
When Edel Johnson arrives at the scene of a crime Mike is taken aback, more so when he discovers she is now working with a victim support group. He has feelings for her, but he is the garda who investigated her husband’s murder, and their relationship is complicated.
With crime in Dublin’s suburbs at an all-time high, and his superiors breathing down his neck, West doesn’t need the distraction. But someone wants Edel out of the way, and it’s up to West to find out who . . .
