Open Wound

Dead Ends, Book 2

By: Beck Lewis

Narrated by: Perdita Lawton

Can saving someone be the biggest mistake of your life?

PR consultant Hannah Douglas-Jones makes her living managing other people’s reputations. But she finds herself involved in a story like no other when she stops at the scene of a house fire and pulls a young woman from the flames.

Fire victim Natasha – calm, capable and self-assured – is now homeless. Hannah offers her a place to stay and a job. Natasha is exactly the person Hannah needs to rebuild her struggling business and help with a hectic home life. But as Hannah’s fortunes rise, she starts to doubt who this woman really is – and what she wants.

DC ‘Walker’ Smith is part of the investigation into the fire. Six people died, locked in the cellar. As the investigation grows, Walker realises that this crime has links to shameful secrets in his own past – and that Natasha is the key to unlocking everything.

One fire. No accident. Everyone’s playing with fire.
