Description
For sixteen years, Oxford has lived in fear of the Midwinter Butcher—an unidentified killer leaving behind ritualistically mutilated animals and chilling messages. Each act coincides with the anniversary of DI Joseph Stone’s son’s death.
Stone, a brooding Irish detective with a tragic past, lives alone on a narrowboat along Oxford’s mist-shrouded canals. Despite his relentless pursuit of the case, the Butcher has always slipped through his grasp.
Until now.
A disturbing pattern begins to emerge. The murders are no longer just symbolic. A darker ritual is unfolding—and Stone’s daughter may be the killer’s next target.
Can he stop a psychopath before the final act is complete? Or will the next victim be too close to home?
The Dead of Midwinter is a tense and atmospheric British detective novel, blending gritty police procedural with psychological suspense. Set in the haunting city of Oxford, it delivers a cast of compelling, multi-layered characters and a story with real heart beneath the darkness. Fans of JD Kirk, LJ Ross, Rhys Dylan, and TG Reid will be gripped from the first page to the last.
