'So you want to know why I killed Ramona Smith?'

Hannah Scarlett is investigating the disappearance of a young woman from Bowness more than twenty years ago.

Now the case comes back into the public eye as the result of a shocking tragedy on the Crooked Shore, on the south coast of the county.

Tensions mount in the summer heat as a ruthless killer who has already got away with one murder, plans further appalling crimes. Scarlett finds herself racing against the clock as she strives to solve the case.

The Crooked Shore by Martin Edwards is a thrilling mystery that will keep readers on the edge of their seats, as Hannah Scarlett unravels the secrets of a chilling case that has haunted her for years.
