A Hearse at Midnight

<p>'Daffodils freeze and shrubs cry in Stormhaven. They call it 'The Beast from the East' and the temperature's unholy; it crucifies all with cruel nails of ice; a Siberian chill piercing their bones. And there will be a further killing tonight - human not plant; boy not man.' </p><p><br></p><p>So begins another case for Abbot Peter and D.I. Tamsin Shah with the discovery of a young man's body at the seaside beauty spot of Splash Point. He drowns beneath a cold uncaring moon; and as P.C. Banville observes it proves a 'hungry death' not be sated by one unfortunate corpse. There must and will be more.</p><p><br></p><p>The investigation will lead the Abbot and Shah into deep but different danger. And it's not just the killer they need worry about.</p><p>Pray for the coming of spring. </p><p><br></p>
