Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Minnesota police detective looks into the death of a local farmer in a series that “always delivers a satisfying mystery” (Booklist). “Jake Hines, chief of detectives in Rutherford, Minnesota, is just trying to get through his day off: he was roped into going goose hunting, but he’d rather be warm at home. The discovery of a dead body nearby is not the way Jake wants to end his day, especially when it turns out the dead man is a local farmer who had been embroiled in a battle with other members of his family over the potential sale of some of their land. But was he murdered by a member of his own family, or by someone else entirely? Jake is a likable narrator, a guy with a good head on his shoulders and a no-nonsense approach to his job, and Gunn’s latest is plenty intricate enough to keep Jake and the reader guessing . . . An engaging protagonist.” —Booklist

Arriving at the scene, Sarah makes a grisly discovery: the driver, Enrique Lopez, was shot in the head during the chase.

Download or read book This Little Piggy written by Bea Davenport and published by Legend Press Ltd. This book was released on 2014-10-01 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author of In Too Deep delivers a “gripping, devastating and utterly absorbing” thriller of a shocking murder and a community in turmoil (Emma Kavanagh, author of The Missing Hours). It’s the summer of 1984 and there is a sense of unease on the troubled Sweetmeadows estate. The residents are in shock after the suspicious death of a baby and tension is growing due to the ongoing miners’ strike. Journalist Clare Jackson follows the story as police botch the inquiry and struggle to contain the escalating violence. Haunted by a personal trauma she can’t face up to, Clare is shadowed by nine-year-old Amy, a bright but neglected little girl who seems to know more about the incident than she’s letting on. As the days go on and the killer is not found, Clare ignores warnings not to get too close to her stories and in doing so, puts her own life in jeopardy. Praise for Bea Davenport’s In Too Deep “[A] moody, disquieting debut [that] focuses on an unlikely friendship between two women.”—Publishers Weekly (starred review) “A tense and suspenseful debut.”—Margaret Murphy, author of Darkness Falls “A taut and suspenseful psychological thriller which marks her as a writer to watch and an exciting new voice in crime fiction.”—But Books Are Better “One of those compulsive reads that draws you in from the start . . . a clever story.”—Cleopatra Loves Books
