Full Description
Laced with character-based and situational humour, but with a compelling and layered murder mystery at its heart, THE SHRINE is part of the one-of-a-kind Detective's Daughter series.
'Always a treat reading Lesley Thomson.' IAN RANKIN
A decades-old murder. A haunting legacy. A plot for revenge.
Stella Darnell knows her partner Jack is hiding something. After following him one evening, she discovers he's been consulting a psychic in a desperate attempt to reach his dead mother. A sceptic by nature, and feeling betrayed by his lies, Stella fears what this means for their relationship.
Seeking distraction, she accepts DI Toni Kemp's invitation to join her for a holiday in a small village in Gloucestershire. But the visit is derailed when a body is discovered at a shrine where a woman died decades earlier.
Drawn into the investigation, Stella must confront the legacy of a once-famous psychic whose shadow still hangs over Prestbury - while in the darkness, someone bent on revenge waits patiently for the perfect moment to strike...
Perfect for fans of LJ Ross and Kate Rhodes, this is the tenth gripping mystery in this must-read series that can be enjoyed in any order.
Praise for Lesley Thomson
