About this listen

'Page-turning and chilling' The Sun

'The story was full of twists and was intense and immersive. A fantastic start to an intriguing new series’ Angela Marsons

A deadly gift

Imogen Clark wakes up on her 16th birthday to find her parents dead at the breakfast table, along with a message from their killer.

A twist of fate

Detectives Jazzy Solanki and Annie McQueen join the investigation, but the more they discover, the more Jazzy suspects that the killing is a twisted message for her. Jazzy shares the same birthday as Imogen, and believes that this is more than a coincidence.

A race to catch a killer

When Jazzy discovers the connection between the killer and the stalker who has been following her for years, she is forced to confront the dark past she was desperate to keep hidden. She must stop at nothing to solve the case, before she becomes the next victim…

Don't miss the first book in the Solanki and McQueen Crime Series, perfect for fans of Stuart MacBride, Val McDermid and Marion Todd.

Critic reviews

'The first in a promising new series featuring the inspired pairing of Scottish female cops Solanki and McQueen…' Choice

Most relevant

Dark, compelling crime story. The characters and their humorous interchanges temper the rawness of the plot and so reflect Scottish culture. The wonderful, skilled writing drew me into the world of the Jazz Queens. I look forward to the next in the series. I listened to the audio book and commend the narrator.
