THE TRUTH NEVER STAYS BURIED
When six human bodies are discovered in the process, building work on a derelict site in Cork grinds to a halt. And then a seventh is discovered. Although the first six are men who died centuries ago, the seventh body is different - female, for a start, and much more recent.
What began as a historic find is now a crime scene.
Detective Garda Alice McCann is determined to track down the killer, even though she knows her superiors don't want her anywhere near such a high-profile case. Not after what happened before.
But at every turn, her investigation reveals more questions than answers, more lies than facts. And someone powerful is watching her every move. Can Alice uncover the truth before she's taken off the case - and before the killer strikes again?

If you like a tightly plotted, clever story with razor sharp dialogue, characters that pop off the page, and a twist so chilling you'll be reaching for a blanket to wrap yourself in, then this is a book for you!
I raced through it, it consumed me in its pages... A shocking conclusion which left me gobsmacked... Brilliant... HOOKS YOU FROM THE START. LOVED IT! LOVED IT! LOVED IT!'

A massive 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 stars from me!

I loved this book. The Cork dance scene of the 90s provides the perfect background for this pin-sharp police procedural, which combines a satisfyingly twisty plot with a vivid and ultra realistic setting. The author shows real concern for her characters, especially her victim. If this is a start of a series then I'll be reading on
