Cold Sacrifice

When three dead bodies are discovered in quick succession, DI Ian Peterson becomes too embroiled in a complex murder investigation to worry about his forthcoming promotion or the state of his marriage.

The first victim is a middle-class housewife, stabbed to death in a park. Her husband is in the clear until the prostitute who provided him with an alibi is murdered. While the police are bust gathering evidence a second prostitute is killed. Peterson and a young female constable, Polly Mortimer, must make sense of the case and find the elusive killer... before he strikes again.
