Lethal Trap

Ten years of marriage. One murdered wife. And a husband everyone is certain did it. When Annabel Benson is found dead, suspicion falls immediately on her husband, Nathan. Their marriage looked solid enough from the outside, but marriages rarely are what they look like from the outside. When a second victim turns up and she is identified as Nathans mistress, the case against him seems to close itself.

Almost everyone is satisfied. DI Geraldine Steel isnt.

Uneasy about where the investigation is heading, and unable to shake the feeling that her colleagues are chasing the wrong man, Geraldine starts pulling on a thread of her own. Somewhere a killer has been waiting for her.

With Geraldine gone and no way to trace her, Ian and the rest of the team are left working blind, racing to find a colleague who might already be beyond saving.

The twenty-sixth Geraldine Steel novel puts one of British crime fictions most trusted detectives in more danger than she has ever faced, and asks how far instinct can be trusted when it might cost you everything.
