Death on the River: A totally addictive cozy mystery novel (A Tara Thorpe Mystery Book 2) / Clare Chase


It’s books like this that made me pick up crime fiction after a hiatus of ten years... There’s so much to love about this book… a superb tale… a mouth-watering, Michelin 5 star read.’ Jenny O’Brien, 5 stars

When a body is pulled from the deep and watery fens on the outskirts of town, everybody assumes it was a tragic accident. But Detective Tara Thorpe, newly joined and determined to prove herself, suspects there’s more to the story.

Tara is desperate to investigate further, but her supervisor Patrick Wilkins has other ideas. He would rather die than let this ambitious upstart show him up – even if it means some digging in Tara’s carefully concealed past to keep her under his thumb. After all, it’s not like he can report her – everyone knows that his boss Detective Garstin Blake and Tara have a history…

When another body is found, it becomes clear that there’s a killer on the loose. Could the murders be linked to the secrets that Tara has been keeping from her team… and can she solve the case before another innocent dies?

If you absolutely love Faith Martin, LJ Ross and Elly Griffiths, you're in for a treat with Clare Chase!

This book can be read as a standalone.
