About SEE HER DIE a totally gripping mystery thriller (Detective Jeff Rickman)

Discover a riveting crime thriller from a critically acclaimed, bestselling author. You won’t want to put this one down. PLEASE NOTE THIS BOOK WAS FIRST PUBLISHED AS NOW YOU SEE ME A WOMAN VANISHES BUT DID SHE EVER EXIST? Megan Ward goes missing and suspicion falls on the stalker seen outside her house. Detective Jeff Rickman is brought in to investigate – it should be a simple missing person case. But the closer he looks the more mysterious Megan herself becomes. There are no photos, no passport, no family or friends from an earlier life. Meanwhile Patrick Doran, owner of Safe Hands Security, is living his own nightmare. A hacker has breached his computer network, where he thought he had safely buried his past. Then someone close to Megan is murdered. And Rickman soon realises that the woman who doesn’t exist is very real, very elusive and very dangerous to know. A CAPTIVATING PSYCHOLOGICAL THRILLER THAT WILL LEAVE YOU GASPING. Perfect for fans of Carol Wyer, Lisa Jewell, Karin Slaughter, Jess Ryder, Ian Rankin, Mark Edwards and Charlie Gallagher. MEET THE DETECTIVES At six-foot-four Detective Chief Inspector Jeff Rickman is an imposing figure. He has the appearance of being a bruiser in a suit, thanks to his crooked nose (broken in childhood and badly reset) and assorted scars, one of which bisects his right eyebrow. He wears his chestnut-brown hair short, and anyone seeing him for the first time might mistake him for a tough nut. He’s handy enough with his fists to face down hard men, but women still feel safe in his presence. Detective Constable Naomi Hart is known for her cool Scandinavian looks. She wears her ‘almost white-blonde’ hair in a twist, accentuating the length and curve of her neck. Rickman is devoted to his partner and would never stray, but he does notice the men on his team noticing her. She is aloof from it all; there’s an air of a mystery about her and she likes it that way. Very much her own woman, Hart is ambitious, and can play the political game, willing to weigh up the costs against gains of working with people she really doesn’t like. In the interview room, she shows poise and control. She has a ready wit and a good sense of timing. PRAISE FOR SEE HER DIE “One of those tough, gritty crime novels that burrows under your skin and won’t leave you alone until you flip the last page — crisp writing, vivid characters, a bullet train plot, and a nerve-jangling aura of menace.” Richard Montanari “This is a book of which it could justifiably be said, ‘As good as Ian Rankin, or your money back’.” Phil Rickman, Phil the Shelf, Radio Wales “A chilling tale of murder, mystery and intrigue set in the murky underworld of Liverpool.” Big Issue “Murphy has steadily established herself as one of England's best crime novelists and this latest book is another tough, convincing tale with strong characters and believable police work. Recommended.” Jeff Popple, Canberra Times ALSO BY MARGARET MURPHY CLARA PASCAL Book 1: DARKNESS FALLS Book 2: WEAVING SHADOWS DETECTIVE JEFF RICKMAN Book 1: SEE HER BURN Book 2: SEE HER DIE DETECTIVE CASSIE ROWAN Book 1: BEFORE HE KILLS AGAIN Join the Joffe Books mailing list for news on the next book by Margaret Murphy.
