Without a Trace: An unputdownable murder mystery novel, perfect for all crime thriller fans! (Detective Isabel Blood, Book 2)

`This was such a brilliant whodunit thriller that I didn't want to put down. I picked it up in the morning and by lunchtime I was finished.' NetGalley Reviewer, ¿¿¿¿¿

You can cover up the truth, but every murder leaves a trail...

The rain was relentless. It stung Ruth Prendergast's face as she dashed towards her house, desperate to escape the cold and settle down for an early night. But upon entering her bedroom, she finds a man, lying on her bed - a knife buried in his chest.

When Detective Isabel Blood and her sergeant arrive on the scene, Ruth claims she's never laid eyes on the victim before. But with no sign of a break-in, how did the killer gain access to the house?

Then Ruth disappears, leaving Isabel and her team to fear the worst. Has their lead suspect escaped, or is Ruth in danger herself?

Forensic evidence at the crime scene is sparse, and it's proving impossible for Isabel to make a breakthrough. With Ruth still missing, time is running out.

But how can you catch a killer that doesn't leave a trace?

Uncover the mystery and solve the crime alongside Derbyshire's best detective. This utterly gripping, unputdownable whodunit will have you hooked and reading long into the night! Fans Val McDermid, Elly Griffiths and ITV's Vera will love Without a Trace!

Readers LOVE Without a Trace!

`To say that reading `Without A Trace' became addictive is a huge understatement. I would pick the book up only intending to read a chapter... but I would become so wrapped up in the story that I would still be sat there reading over an hour later.' Ginger Book Geek, ¿¿¿¿¿

`A must read of this year... I loved it. It's wowsome.' NetGalley Reviewer, ¿¿¿¿¿

`A 5 star novel. Great characters. Plenty of suspense to keep me guessing. All you need for a perfect thriller.' NetGalley Reviewer, ¿¿¿¿¿

`A crime novel to devour in one sitting...' NetGalley Reviewer, ¿¿¿¿¿

`I was hooked from page one... completely loved the storyline.' NetGalley Reviewer, ¿¿¿¿¿

`A really good, interesting read with lots of clues and red herrings.' NetGalley Reviewer, ¿¿¿¿¿

In the world of police fiction, Without a Trace by Jane Bettany stands at the top, weaving a tale of noir that keeps readers on their toes. The procedural intricacies of the case, handled by the relentless sleuths, add a layer of realism that is often missing in thrillers.

For fans of Marion Todd (Old Bones Lie), Rachel Lynch (Dead End), Rachel Mclean (The Mine), J. R. Ellis (The Brewery Murders), and Louisa Scarr (Under a Dark Cloud).
