Last Act of All

Ugly, remote and inbred, the village of Radnesfield in the Fens has lived with its secrets for centuries.

Inevitably, its inhabitants greet the intrusion of television soap star Neville Fielding and his wife Helena with deep suspicion.

But no one anticipates the storm that will cause havoc in this small, rural community.

Driven by Neville's brutal philandering, Helena divorces him and remarries into one of Radnesfield€s oldest families.

When Neville is murdered she is caught out in a string of lies and confesses to the killing.

But Detective Sergeant Frances Howarth is haunted by a nagging fear for Helena's own safety.

With her release from prison the storm breaks, and Radnesfield€s diseased heart is shockingly exposed€¦

And 'The Last Act of All' is more shocking than anyone could have imagined.

'The Last Act of All' is a compelling crime thriller that will keep readers hooked from the first page to the last.
