 Last Victim Helen H. Durrant- Crime

Rachel is now happily with Jed and they have a new baby, him having put

his past behind him- or has he? DCI Rachel has a missing baby and elderly

person and a man- the link being a crime group. Is Jed somehow involved?

It looks like someone is out for revenge on the Trio as they are known but

why. There is also a possibility as Rachel soon finds out that an ex-cop has

been part of this. Can the team find the perpetrators and get the people

returned safely? This is book five in the Rachel King series and could

probably stand alone- however some background stories wouldn't be

so clear- and why miss out on other wonderful reads?


Another wonderful page turning read from Helen. Despite the subject

matter there is always that warmth of character and a very well thought

out plot that seems to speed turn the pages each and every time. 

I settle into these and before I know it those words appear “ the end”

showing  to me it was an enjoyable easy read. A fast moving read

with twists and turns.

LAST VICTIM (Detective Rachel King #5) by Helen H Durrant

MEET DETECTIVE RACHEL KING IN THIS BRILLIANT NEW CRIME SERIES.

A BRAND-NEW MYSTERY FROM #1 BESTSELLING AUTHOR HELEN H. DURRANT THAT WILL HAVE YOU GRIPPED FROM START TO PULSATING FINISH.

A two-month-old baby is missing. James’s parents left him with a babysitter while they went out for dinner. But when they get home, there’s no sign of baby or sitter.

This is the last thing DCI Rachel King wants to hear on her last night of maternity leave. But worse is to come. The missing infant belongs to Scott Agnew, alleged member of Manchester drug-dealing ring, the Trio.

Then the elderly mother of another Trio boss disappears. Rachel knows that if these are retaliation kidnappings, things will only go from bad to terrible.

And guess who everyone thinks is behind this? The prime suspect is Rachel’s partner Jed, ex-gangland boss and father of her youngest child.

FIND OUT IF THEY’RE RIGHT IN THIS RACE-AGAINST-TIME MYSTERY FULL OF STUNNING TWISTS.

Perfect for fans of Angela Marsons, Rachel McLean, Kimberley Chambers, Damien Boyd, Rachel Abbott, Patricia Gibney, D.S. Butler or Mark Billingham.
