Genre -Thriller

Eighteen years ago, Bellamy’s older sister Susan was found murdered and Bellamy writes her first mystery novel based around her life.  This opens a can of worms.  Her book titled Low Pressure is a best seller.  However, the killer (Richard) who himself was murdered in prison always stated his innocence and that the Police did not listen to what would have been crucial proof exonerating him.  His brother Ray is out for revenge to all the people that were involved.

Susan’s past was not one to brag about and her recklessness was well known, particularly with one of her boyfriends at the time, Dent, who was not the type of person her family wished to circulate with and therefore shunned. Dent was also blamed for Susan’s demise.  Is Dent the guilty one, or perhaps the retired Inspector Moody who cannot be traced?  Or even Richard’s brother, the Prosecutor at that time, or even perhaps the sleazy newspaperman who was determined to uncover family secrets no matter what.  On top of all this Bellamy is stalked!

A very gripping story which keeps you on your toes and one that you can’t put down until the end.
