A Totally Engrossing Read - By: J. Chippindale, 12 Jul 2007 
Stuart Pawson had a career as a mining engineer, followed by a spell working for the probation service, before he became a full-time writer. He livesin the village of Fairburn,in Yorkshire only about four or five miles from where I live myself. A place I regularly visit to look at the bird sanctuary there with all the water birds & a welcome pintin the Bay Horse.
This is the eighth bookin the DI Charlie Priest series: When Colinette Jones fails to return home & a body turns up not more than half a mile from her house DI Priest knows he has to make that house call that every mother dreads, & every copper for that matter. Further a field Laura Heeley is also found dead down a country lane, the only sign of violence on the body, a single stab wound.
Is there a link between the two young women, apart, that is from their unfortunate death? And what if anything is the link with a sixties rock star? In a small town to all intents & purposes cut off by the foot & mouth outbreak DI Priest knows that he must apprehend the killer before he or she strikes again.
