Snow Fallen (DCI Murrain Book 3) Kindle Edition

SNOW FALLEN
by Alex Walters

One winter's night, a lone figure arrives on foot in a remote Pennine village.
The next morning, as the first heavy snow begins to fall, a man's body is discovered in the village churchyard. Anne Tilston, one of three sisters living in a brooding run-down house in the shadow of the church, realises that the dead man is her father, a disgraced former senior police officer long estranged from his family.
As DCI Kenny Murrain's team arrive in the village to investigate the unexplained death, a further body is discovered in a nearby field – a young man from the village with no apparent connection to Tilston or his daughters. Meanwhile Murrain and DI Joe Milton are investigating the disappearance of a young woman. The case appears to be part of a string of similar missing persons cases, although with no evidence to date of foul play.
With the snow continuing to fall, another body is discovered, and Murrain finds himself stranded with his team in the sisters' house with a seemingly motiveless killer waiting outside in the night.
Desperately liaising with Milton, Murrain realises he has only hours to discover the truth and to prevent the murderer from killing again. And it seems the answer lies within Murrain's own team...

Praise for Alex Walters

‘A talent to be reckoned with … A strong story line, muscular prose and a real sense of pace…a police procedural for a new age’ - Daily Mail

‘…Right up there with the best police procedural thrillers of the last few years. Expect to hear much more of Walters in the future.’ – Mark Timlin

    Thought it might be another
    boring serial killer story. However, it has many twists and turns and comes down to family dynamics.

    After the disappointing second book in the series I almost didn't bother with this one. It was a pleasant surprise, almost seems like a different person wrote it.

    5.0 out of 5 stars It's a "just one more chapter" book - I couldn't put it down. Brilliant.

    This is the perfect creepy, spooky, breath-holding, beautifully written book. It has everything you need in a crime/thriller/police procedural novel - and then some! Not only are we reunited with the magnificent Kenny Murrain and Marie, Will and Joe - but we have snowmageddon in a remote Pennine hamlet; a past that erupts to haunt more than one of the characters; a spooky gothic pile inhabited by some very weird sisters; Kenny and co stranded overnight in said house as the snow deepens, the murders increase and a mad serial killer stalks the village in the darkness.... Bliss!

    This is really well written and keeps you on the edge of your seat to the very end. Murrain is a character that is believable and relatable, despite his 'feelings'. It all adds to a brilliant character leading a great team.
