Plenty of red herrings to keep you guessing in the first of a new detective series by Elena Forbes.
She writes with a chilling tone and has created interesting characters with plenty of scope for them to grow in books to come. It has a particularly good ending as it was not the most predictable of outcomes. This will definitely be a series to follow with interest.
You could find your new best friend on the net, or discover your worst nightmare. For 15-year-old Gemma, it's already too late. Her body was found in the nave of the parish church in Ealing. For D.I. Mark Tartaglia and the murder squad at Barnes, it's just a matter of time before the tragedy repeats itself.
Elena Forbes has lived most of her life in London. After reading Modern Languages at Bristol University she worked as a portfolio manager for international investment banks. She now writes full time. The first chapter and synopsis of Die With Me was shortlisted for a debut dagger in 2005.
