Terrifyingly authentic, London-set debut crime
novel with a psychological edge, by an ex-Met detective. DI Sean Corrigan is not like other detectives. The terrible abuse he suffered in childhood has
not stopped him enjoying family life with his wife and two daughters, or
pursuing an impressive career with South London 's
Murder Investigation Unit. Nevertheless,
it has left him with an uncanny ability to identify the darkness in others - a
darkness he recognises still exists deep within his own psyche and battles to
keep buried there. Now Sean's on the
trail of the most dangerous killer he has ever encountered. The perpetrator has no recognisable MO,
leaves no forensic evidence and his victims have nothing in common. But Sean knows they were all murdered by the
same man. Now all he has to do is find
the evidence, convince his bosses and stop the killing ...before his adversary
gets too close to home. Cold Killing is by Luke Delaney and is
due to be published in March 2013.

when the vicar of Blakeney is found hanging from his church's bell rope, Morley

As teenagers, Maggie Donaldson and Johnny Taylor
fell hard and fast in love. But they did
not know they were from rival gangland families in London 's criminal underworld. Going public with their relationship would
have brought them more trouble than they could handle, so for years they

cards will not be safe for much longer. Maggie's
violent father Max has always been out for the Taylors ' blood and treats his own family with
barely more sympathy. There is a
long-buried reason for the vendetta that no one talks about, a secret so
shocking it could tear each family - and Maggie and Johnny - apart... Trapped is a gritty story of bitter feuds and
unbreakable bonds by Jacqui Rose and is due to be published in March 2013.
