A novel by

 
 
The dead are screaming. The only person who can hear them is DI Jo Wolfe.

Perfect for fans of horror suspense from John Connolly, Stephen King, Dean Koonz, Peter James, C J Tudor and James D Mortain.
After a great result in their last case, DI Jo Wolfe and her team decide to celebrate with a meal in a popular Italian in central Chichester. As Jo approaches the restaurant the unthinkable happens - a bomb detonates inside, and she has to witness the death of the diners.

In the aftermath, Jo finds out that the target was a local MP and she receives a warning from the group responsible. They intend to kill politicians, "painting red the powers' homes with crimson gore." They want to rid the UK of corrupt and incompetent MPs.
Can Jo rise above her grief and stop the ultra-right-wing group in their tracks?
Will the visions from the dead help her?
Or will she be hampered by despair, as she communicates with them?


This is the second in a new series following Jo Wolfe, a detective who developed psychic abilities after a riding accident. The only person who knows about her gift (or curse depending upon your point of view) is her father and together they attempt to right the wrongs of the living, with the aid of the dead.

Wendy Cartmell is well known for her bestselling, chilling crime thrillers and Sgt Major Crane mysteries. Several of them have ghostly and psychic elements and wanting to develop these themes further, she decided it was time she wrote a supernatural suspense series.
