Book Synopsis

'A gripping high-octane masterpiece' – Andrew Child

To make the perfect Spanish whodunnit cocktail, take one dead gangster, mix in six shifty expats, add one ruthless baddie and garnish with a suspicious police officer . . .

Daniella Coulstoun has recently moved to the Costa Blanca. When the dead body of a prominent London gangster is discovered in the cellar of her bar she quickly becomes the number one suspect.

With the police closing in, the local expats turning on her and a psychotic rival to the dead gangster in the background, Daniella knows she needs to nail the real killer, and fast.

-- Helen Fields

'Morgan Cry possesses that rare magic of being able to tell a dark tale with light humour. So great to be back with Daniella - a woman who just can’t seem to shake trouble. A breakneck speed read that explodes on to the first page - literally - and doesn’t let up'

-- Deborah Masson
