Blood on the Island

(2020)
(The first book in the DI Liam O'Reilly Mystery series)
A novel by Stewart Giles

Blood on the Island. From # 1 bestselling author: Stewart Giles, comes a new detective series set on the idyllic island of Guernsey. What deadly secrets does the peaceful island of Guernsey hold? Detective Inspector Liam O'Reilly has recently transferred to the island of Guernsey from the Special Detective Unit in Dublin and in this first installment we see him hitting the ground running. He has barely set foot on the island when the body of a man is washed up on the shore. There is no indication of where the man came from - his hands and teeth have been removed and he has a crude tattoo of a dragon on his back. When another similarly mutilated body is found, O'Reilly and his new team realise they're on the hunt for a deranged killer. O'Reilly is getting closer to the truth when the case is suddenly taken away from him. The Guernsey Border Agency, headed up by the arrogant DCI Franklin Urban has their own ideas as to who is behind these brutal murders and argue that the jurisdiction is now theirs. O'Reilly left Dublin behind but his past soon catches up with him in the form of a Belfast thug employed by a man O'Reilly owes money to. When O'Reilly's daughter is threatened by these people he persuades her to join him on the island so he can keep an eye on her. Soon he's faced with a choice - he can either do what these people tell him and risk everything he has, or he can defy them and spend the rest of his life looking over his shoulder. Meanwhile, as DCI Urban and the Border Agency believe they're getting closer to the truth, O'Reilly has his own theories and as these suspicions are proved correct he comes face to face with one of the most depraved killers he's ever come across.
