An investigative crime thriller that braids a fifteen-year-old disappearance, a ruined millionaire's final plan and a survivor who's done with running. Northern England noir where a detective's faith in the law is tested by what powerful people bury. She Ran For Fifteen Years. Now She Fights Back. Fifteen-year-old Grace Kirby kisses her mum and heads off to school. It's a day like any other, except that Grace will never return home. Fifteen years on, Stephen Baxley has made millions and lost millions. Suicide seems like the only way out, but he has no intention of leaving behind his wife, son and daughter. He wants the family together forever, in this world or the next. Angel is on the brink too. Then a name on the news drags her back to a windowless basement and the terrible thing that happened there, the thing she's spent most of her life running from. The time for running is over. At the scene of a fatal shooting, Detective Jim Monahan finds evidence of a sickening crime linked to a missing girl. Then more people start turning up dead. The answers will test to breaking point Jim's faith in the law he's spent his life upholding. Angel of Death is the second book in the Steel City Thrillers series, for readers who love interlocking storylines, cold-case disappearances, avenging survivors and detectives pushed to the edge. Perfect for fans of Ian Rankin, Ann Cleeves and L.J. Ross. What Amazon and Goodreads readers are saying about Ben Cheetham's booksWow a real who done it!! Twists and turns from beginning to end.
