A mutilated corpse on the flats. A detective haunted by his past. A killer who’s just getting started.
Detective Edison Kane is barely holding it together. Three months ago, his wife was murdered on a night she begged him to join her—and he chose the job instead. Her killer? Still out there.
Now back on duty with the Southend-on-Sea murder squad, Kane is thrown into a chilling new case when a body is discovered on the mudflats near Leigh-on-Sea—eyeless, mutilated, and posed with a message.
Murder was so much easier than I thought. See no evil…
As Kane spirals deeper into the investigation, anonymous messages keep coming—taunting him. Someone knows what happened to Lizzy. Someone is playing him. And the line between his personal obsession and professional duty is blurring fast.
Paired with rookie DC Bailey Granger—a sharp, no-nonsense single mum with killer instincts and a past of her own—Kane must race to stop a sadistic killer before the body count rises.
But Kane couldn’t protect his wife. Can he protect anyone now?
A Body on the Flats is the first unmissable installment in the DI Edison Kane series—a dark, twist-filled British crime thriller perfect for fans of Simon McCleave, Ann Cleeves, Elly Griffiths, and C.J. Grayson.
