Stop Dead

Detective Inspector Geraldine Steel returns in the fifth in the series, facing a case of grisly murder in London
When a successful businessman is the victim of a vicious murder, all evidence points to his wife and her young lover.
But then the victim's business partner suffers a similarly brutal fate and when yet another body is discovered, seemingly unrelated, the police are baffled.
The only clue is DNA that leads them to two women: one dead, the other in prison.
With rumours growing of a serial killer in the city, the pressure to solve the case is high.
But can Geraldine find the killer before there's yet another deadly attack?
