Isobel Swan, a sixth form student, has been murdered. First, her ring finger is severed, then her throat is cut.
With the investigation going nowhere fast, Detective Inspector Nick Dixon is sent undercover as a trainee teacher into Isobel’s boarding school.
But to find the killer, he must first confront his inner demons and lay to rest the ghosts lurking in his own past. If he can…
As Dixon digs deeper, the stakes have never been higher and a murder has never felt so personal.
Swansong is the fourth novel in Damien Boyd’s highly addictive crime series.
‘…intriguing and wends its way through past and present culminating in a twist that I didn’t see coming but was perfectly satisfying. Pacing, description, characterisation were also of the same high quality that I have come to expect from this series.’
‘The story throws you in quickly, picking up pace from the first few chapters and finding a speed that leaves you struggling to put the book down…’
‘A compelling tale and kept me guessing right to the end…this was one of those books that keeps you wanting more till it’s finished…’
