Deadly Will
THE NEXT NOVEL FROM ONE OF THE UK'S FAVOURITE CRIME WRITERS WITH OVER 1.5 MILLION COPIES SOLD.
The body of a wealthy businessman is discovered in the river, but this was no accidental drowning.
He was shot before his body entered the water. The police question the dead man’s young girlfriend and his two adult children, all of whom are hoping to inherit his fortune.
Before the killer is found, the dead man’s girlfriend is murdered, and pressure mounts for Geraldine and her team to solve the case.
Geraldine’s partner is called away to work undercover. Soon after he leaves, their baby vanishes along with the child minder.
Geraldine struggles to focus on the murder investigation while she desperately tries to find her child. Afraid that one of her colleagues may be in contact with the kidnapper, she knows she has to work alone, but time may be running out for her child.
The next thrilling crime investigation, and the 22nd Instalment in the bestselling Geraldine Steel series.
