The Shrine

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 YOU CAN'T RUN FROM WHAT YOU CAN'T SEE Stella Darnell knows her partner, Jack, is lying to her. He's been secretive for months and is clearly hiding something – but it's not what you might think. As Jack disappears down a rabbit hole, Stella craves distraction. When DI Toni Kemp asks for her help after a body is discovered in a quiet, unassuming village, she throws herself into the case. But the investigation soon draws her into a world haunted by the legacy of a once-famous psychic — a presence that lingers long after death, and threatens to consume everyone it touches. 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 'A perfect blend of Agatha Christie and Barbara Pym.' ELLY GRIFFITHS 'The final revelation is jaw-dropping.' SUNDAY TIMES
