Driven To Kill

(2019)
(The seventh book in the D.I. Matt Barnes series)
A novel by

 
 
DI Matt Barnes and the squad have two separate cases to investigate. One is to identify and apprehend an opportunist rapist who strangles his victims to ensure that his description cannot be given to the police. The second perpetrator is apparently a homophobic serial killer who uses carpenters’ chisels to dispatch his chosen prey. But nothing is ever what it seems.
As the Special Crime Unit begin their inquiries, an east end gangster, Ray Cooper, sends two enforcers to the home of a recent recruit to the team, DC Kelly Day, to lean on her and tell her that they need any information on the killer that has unknowingly murdered Ray’s sister. Their incentive to have Kelly on side is that they threaten to kill her mother if she does not comply.
DCS Julia Stone has asked Matt to step up to fill the shoes of now retired DCI Tom Bartlett, and although Matt does not want promotion, he has to consider the integrity of the team. Nothing stays the same, life moves on, and so perhaps he will take on the extra responsibility, but not before he has closed the cases that are currently being investigated.
