YOUR NEW FAVOURITE DETECTIVE. A very windy Welsh island. A divorced detective with a bad knee, three grown sons and two dogs — an Alsatian cross and a Jack Russell who thinks he's a tiger. And more dead bodies than DI Alan Williams knows what to do with. FROM THREE-MILLION-SELLING AUTHOR CONRAD JONES, A GRITTY CRIME THRILLER SERIES ON THE SEEMINGLY IDYLLIC ISLAND OF ANGLESEY. Please note this book was previously published as Unholy Island. Anglesey, North Wales. DI Alan Williams knows this island: the empty beaches, the cliff roads, the pubs, the rumours — and the sea that gives up its dead. In the wake of a violent storm, he's called down to the slipway at Trearddur Bay, along with Kim Davies, his sharp-tongued detective. Two bodies have washed up in the surf, bound together at the feet, half-naked, their skin marked by torture. No one ends up in the water like that by accident. Before Williams can make sense of it, a third body turns up inland at Porth Dafarch. Three deaths in a single day, with no obvious motive and no easy answers — and a detective running on cheap whisky and not enough sleep. On this island, everyone knows everyone . . . but nobody tells the whole truth. Perfect for fans of Simon McCleave, Angela Marsons and M.W. Craven. THE SETTING The Isle of Anglesey looks like a postcard: jagged cliffs, snow-capped Snowdonia on the skyline, the foaming sea rolling in off the Irish coast. But danger lies beneath its beauty. The tides that draw the tourists will drag a body halfway across the Irish Sea, the sheltered inlets hide deadly currents, and the inky waters of the Menai Strait cut the island off from the mainland. It's a remote, windswept place where everyone knows everyone — the perfect place for a killer to hide in plain sight.
