Death in the Woods, The West County Crime Mysteries

A British police detective must determine who silenced a singer forever . . .

DI Dan Hellier has returned to Exeter under a cloud. But a chance for redemption comes when the body of a talented young singer is found in the woods. When links are revealed to a recording studio boss, a predatory gang, and a school music teacher, Hellier has his work cut out. 

Before any more innocent people are put in danger, Hellier will need to untangle a web of lies—and work out which of many suspects silenced a promising voice.
