The Winter Killings (The Yorkshire Murders, Book 5) by Wes Markin ~ @rararesources @BoldwoodBooks #CrimeFiction #Mystery


The Winter Killings

A gruesome find. A missing colleague. A case that hits closer to home…




About the Book:

As winter settles over Yorkshire, DCI Emma Gardner is hoping that work will calm down for everyone. Distracted by the continued disappearance of DI Paul Riddick Emma can’t seem to get her head back in the game. But when a human skull is discovered in a local pub, Emma knows it’s time to get a grip.

With no one local reported missing, and with no body to be found, the team have their work cut and no obvious clues to follow. Who could the skull belong to and what message is the killer trying to leave them? And then the first body is found…

As Emma and the team try desperately to identify the body and the killer, secrets from the past begin to reveal themselves. A home for single mothers. Babies who tragically didn’t make it. A coverup at the highest level.

With the clock ticking, winter has one final cold reveal for Emma. Her old friend Riddick…

My Review:

The Winter Killings is the fifth book in The Yorkshire Murders. This book is only the second one I've had a chance to read. I will definitely go back and read books one through three.

DCI Emma Gardner is still trying to figure out what happened to DI Paul Riddick in book four. She's hired a PI to track him down. In the middle of Emma's search for Paul, a skull is found, opening up a new case that leads them to a home for single mothers filled with secrets and tragedy.

This book had me on the edge of my seat. The Winter Killings is a suspenseful crime thriller with multiple storylines. The characters, plot, and world are complex and well-constructed. There are so many twist, turns, and shocking events throughout the novel. The author did a magnificent job weaving everything together and then systematically unraveling it all in a dramatic and exciting fashion.

I was provided a copy of this book.
