Raby

The twenty-sixth instalment in LJ Ross's globally bestselling DCI Ryan mystery series

-----


Some secrets should stay buried…

When two poachers trespass on the sprawling Raby estate, they expect to find deer in their sights - not the body of a young woman lying in her running gear. But calling it in would mean confessing what they were really doing there…

Instead, an anonymous tip-off lands on the desk of DCI Ryan. Soon, Ryan and his team are racing against time, with storm clouds closing in and a trail that could be washed away at any moment.

When the search leads them to a disused mine, the case takes a darker turn—and what they discover below ground will shock even the most hardened detectives.

Can Ryan unravel the truth before more lives are lost?

Murder and mystery are peppered with romance and humour in this fast-paced crime whodunnit, set amidst the dramatic landscape of County Durham.
