The Eleventh Grave

When Detective Mark Turpin is assigned the task of investigating the death of a local businessman, the case is first thought to be one of accidental drowning.

Until a bullet hole is found where the victim fell into the River Thames.

Then a number of graves are unearthed at a disused airfield site being redeveloped by the dead man, exposing a horrific secret and plunging Mark into one of the darkest investigations of his career.

After two more bodies are discovered amongst the burnt-out ruins of a building on a nearby industrial estate, Mark realises that a serial killer is at large.

Except as the police draw closer, the killer already has their next victim in their sights – and both have disappeared without a trace…

An page-turning mystery where small‑town ties complicate the truth. Ideal for readers who want character-fuelled thrillers with unexpected twists. Perfect for fans of Patricia Cornwell, James Lee Burke and Lisa Gardner.
