DI Sebastian Locke Mystery 2: Quiet Dead - N. J. Mackay
Tax included.
Fifteen years ago, he confessed to the murder of his wife and children. As a teenager, Hayley DaSilva walked into a nightmare; discovering the bodies of her mother, twin brother, and friend all brutally slaughtered in her home... and her nine-year-old brother missing.
Her father, Leonard DaSilva, confessed to the murders, but Ethan was never seen again. He lied. But why? Now, Hayley has fled her dreadful past in Thamespark - until the call from Detective Sebastian Locke.
Little bones uncovered in a shallow grave belong to Ethan... and the investigation reveals holes in the case that prove Leonard's confession was false. He didn't kill his family.
So why did he say he did?As DI Locke and the squad realise that a killer has been hiding in plain sight in the sleepy commuter town of Thamespark, the previously cold case becomes an urgent investigation. But as the squad gets closer to the truth of who really murdered the DaSilvas, it becomes clear that the culprit won't hesitate to spill blood to keep their shocking secrets hidden...
