The fallen angel was embedded in the ground. It looked as if it had flown straight into it by accident, like a lost plane into a hillside.
DCI David Fyfe returns in this thriller when a young woman's body is discovered ditched among the angelic tombstones of the cemetery. The young woman is only a few years older than his own daughter. Can DCI David Fyfe keep his personal life away from the darkness that comes with the job?
Born and brought up in the east of Scotland, William Paul is a former journalist who now earns a living in digital communications but reverts to old-fashioned reporting most weekends by covering rugby matches in both print and digital format.
He's been writing since an early age - somewhere in the attic is a picture of a fresh-faced youth with his first royalty cheque - and sees no reason to stop now.
He got married along the way, has two sons and grandson Aidan to cope with.
His ideas for books come at him from all angles and sometimes he finds it difficult to get all that stuff down on the page before it fades, morphs into something entirely different or simply vanishes from his unreliable memory. Wherever and however ideas end up - on the page or in the bin - they just keep coming.
Another good book in this series with DCI Fyfe initially investigating the death of a young girl found in a cemetery which quickly becomes more complicated as more deaths appear to be linked. His home life is also complicated by his daughters return, his wife, his would be mistress and his less than honest approach to his work.
It starts with a female body discovered in an abandoned cemetery. But more people are about to have hallucinations and die. But why. DCI Fyfe investigates while dealing with problems at home and basically being unlikeable. But can he improve. An entertaining modern mystery
