For DCI Malcolm Ford it's like nothing he's ever seen before, the savagery of the crime making him want to catch the murderer before he strikes again. For reporter Donna Blake it's a shot at the big time, a chance to get her career back on track and prove all the doubters wrong. But for close protection specialist Connor Fraser it's merely a grisly distraction from the day job.

On the first day of her new job, Harris is called to the scene of a brutal murder at the heart of Surrey society. A shocking crime, with a meticulous killer: the victim’s eyes have been removed and the body drained of blood, with no forensic evidence left at the scene. Her boss insists it must be the return of a killer who escaped justice several years ago, leaving a trail of bloody ritualistic killings. Harris isn’t so sure: both sets of victims have had their eyes removed, but other details are significantly different.

Publisher's Summary
The second dark and twisted thriller in the Avison Fluke series by M. W. Craven, the acclaimed author of The Puppet Show.
Investigating how a severed hand ends up on the third green of a Cumbrian golf course is not how Detective Inspector Avison Fluke has planned to spend his Saturday. So when a secret protection unit from London swoops in quoting national security, he's secretly pleased.
But trouble is never far away. A young woman arrives at his lakeside cabin with a cryptic message: a code known to only a handful of people, and it forces Fluke back into the investigation he's only just been barred from.
In a case that will change his life forever, Fluke immerses himself in a world of New Age travellers, corrupt cops and domestic extremists. Before long he's alienated his entire team, has been arrested under the Terrorism Act - and has made a pact with the devil himself. But a voice has called out to him from beyond the grave. And Fluke is only getting started....

Definitely Worth a Credit
I'm really enjoying the M. W Craven books. They're fast paced with lots of twists and interesting storylines. I love Fluke's relationship with Towler, it's unconditional. Hopefully there is a third book in the pipeline, they left us on a bit of a cliffhanger.
Is it just me, or have other people noticed the similarities between the leading characters? Fluke with his log cabin and Poe with his Shepherds Croft - both in isolated locations and having problems with the possibility of eviction. Nevertheless, they make the drive to and from work much more exciting.

I am really enjoying this writer's books. I like his characters and the plots are good. What more can I say? I've read the two books just released in two days, they are certainly worth the cost of a credit!
Ah well! I'm now hoping for another in his other series, Washington Poe!

Interesting
After “Born in a burial gown” I was really looking forward to this book. And while I did enjoy it it it did seem as though it was going down the same route as most with the maverick police officer. Some of their actions were ridiculous and his girlfriend! Talk about high maintenance. All in all, entertaining new series.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 106
A serial killer is burning people alive in the Lake District's prehistoric stone circles. He leaves no clues, and the police are helpless. When his name is found carved into the charred remains of the third victim, disgraced detective Washington Poe is brought back from suspension and into an investigation he wants no part of. He is reluctantly partnered with brilliant but socially awkward civilian analyst Tilly Bradshaw, and the mismatched pair uncover a trail that only he is meant to see. The elusive killer has a plan, and for some reason Poe is part of it.

There’s just one problem: he has no idea if his team know what has become of him.

A mutilated body is found dumped at Cowane's Hospital in the heart of historic Stirling. For DCI Malcolm Ford it's like nothing he's ever seen before, the savagery of the crime making him want to catch the murderer before he strikes again. For reporter Donna Blake it's a shot at the big time, a chance to get her career back on track and prove all the doubters wrong. But for close protection specialist Connor Fraser it's merely a grisly distraction from the day job.
