Murder on Stark Street (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

When a local businessman is found murdered on the outskirts of the sleepy Wadhurst, former detective Rowan Whitecross doesn't expect to be drawn into the case. Still recovering from trauma and suffering from patchy amnesia, Whitecross has returned to his childhood home to settle his late aunt's estate--and escape the ghosts of a career that ended too soon in London.

But the past has other plans. Teaming up with local sergeant Jem Robson, Whitecross soon realises the killing is anything but random. As the investigation deepens, he uncovers links to a shadowy local elite, a buried scandal, and the mysterious circumstances surrounding his own father's death--an accident that never sat quite right. With a crucial piece of his memory missing, Whitecross must navigate fraught relationships, buried secrets, and rising tensions between the local force and senior brass, who seem intent on shutting the case down. The truth, it seems, is more dangerous than anyone imagined. As pressure mounts and the town begins to turn in on itself, Whitecross is forced to decide: will he walk away again, or risk everything to uncover what really happened on Stark Street?
