Summary

A gripping new crime series for fans of Val McDermid, Jane Casey and Cara Hunter

’Compelling crime fiction with a beating heart of authenticity’ Hayley Scrivenor, author of Dirt Town

’Brimming with suspense!’ Heather Darwent, author of Sunday Times bestseller The Things We Do To Our Friends

‘CSI Ally Dymond is a gem, engaging, relatable, smart – everything you want in a main character’ Trevor Wood, author of The Man on the Street

A family secret worth killing for…

In the dead of night, 72-year-old Miriam Narracott is found wandering on Exmoor, holding a knife and covered in blood. Inside the family farmhouse lies the body of her adult son, Gabe.

CSI Ally Dymond is on compassionate leave, but when approached by the new DI, recently arrived from London and eager to have Ally's keen eye and local knowledge on the case, she finds herself being drawn back in.

With their only suspect Miriam unwilling – or unable – to talk, the team must dig into the family’s history to uncover a motive. Instead they find evidence that Gabe was involved with a criminal network, suggesting a completely different chain of events. But if Miriam isn’t the killer – then who is?

The gripping second novel in the CSI Ally Dymond series.

‘Shot through with wit and peopled by characters you care about’ Gill Perdue, author of If I Tell

‘T. Orr Munro has weaved such an intricate story, she’ll have you guessing right until the end’ Sophia Spiers, author of The Call of Cassandra Rose

‘A well-written, perfectly plotted novel that hooked me in right from the prologue’ Diane Jeffrey, author of The Guilty Mother

Intriguing and engrossing story

Really enjoyed this book. Kept me involved. Exciting in parts. Loved the way all loose ends were tied up. Will be interested in further books about Ali her life and her daughter

Gripping

I have just finished Slaughterhouse Farm, wow I thought Breakneck Point was gripping but this was something else, I finished in three days, I couldn’t put it down (well turn it off 😀😀) it pulled you and made you think you were there witnessing the whole thing, I would never of guessed that Kit was the one that killed Gabe and then to frame his mother. I can’t wait for the next instalment of Ally Dymond

As good as the first book.

I read Breakneck Point and enjoyed it so much that I bought this one straight away. Hating spoilers, I won't give away the ending. It's a completely different story but read Breakneck first as it's referred to various times. Just when you think it's ending, there's more to the story.
I'm following the author now so I'm anticipating the next book already.

Great series.

Love the character and all her flaws, really good story and as importantly very well read. 2nd book in the series and I’ll be looking out for more!
