A Dr Harrison Lane Mystery

Broken Angels : A heart-stopping crime thriller that will have you on the edge of your seat

“Mind-blowing! It's just that good!” Online reviewer, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

The child’s eyes were tightly shut and a lock of blond hair had fallen across his smooth forehead. He looked as if he were merely sleeping… but the rotting leaves upon which he lay were his grave.

In the early hours of a chilly autumn morning, Harrison Lane races to shadowy Fenton Woods. Beneath an ash tree is the lifeless body of a young boy – four guttered candles surround him, a makeshift cross pushed into the earth nearby. Harrison tenses – who would want to hurt an innocent child?

As head of the police’s Ritualistic Behavioural Crime unit, Harrison uses his unique tracking skills to assess the scene. Some slips of paper inside the boy’s mouth – cryptic words written in the child’s own handwriting – gives him the first clue, as well as a link to a dilapidated chapel in nearby Nunhead Cemetery. Pulse racing, Harrison realises he’s been there before – as a child, his mother brought him just before she herself was murdered, her killer never caught.

Then another child goes missing – a little boy who bears an eerie resemblance to the first victim. Harrison knows the chance of finding him alive is growing smaller every moment … can Harrison conquer the demons in his own past and catch this twisted killer before another innocent life is taken?

A totally and utterly gripping, keep-you-up-all-night crime thriller Fans of Angela Marsons, DK Hood and Rachel Lynch will love this unputdownable crime series introducing the unforgettable Harrison Lane.
