DISCOVER THE LATEST EDGE-OF-YOUR-SEAT CRIME THRILLER FROM BESTSELLING AUTHOR D.E. WHITE.

The baby is in the middle of the road. Cocooned in a car seat, tiny face suddenly, violently, illuminated by the headlights.

Detective Dove Milson swerves to avoid the car seat. Ten metres up the road, a car is crashed in a ditch.

Detective Steve Parker rushes to the car, while Dove attends to the baby.

But it’s just a doll, and the driver is missing. There is a trail of blood leading into the woods.

As the detectives search the scene, someone shoots at them. Dove sees a shadowy figure crashing off into the woods. Then she realizes that Steve has been hit.

When backup arrives, the driver of the abandoned car is found dead nearby. A carved stone heart placed in her mouth.

She’s not the murderer’s first victim. And she won’t be the last.

A stone cold killer is on the loose. And Detective Dove Milson is in a race against time to stop them.

This electrifying crime thriller set on the south coast of England is perfect for fans of Cara Hunter, K.L. Slater, Robert Bryndza, Helen Fields, Helen H. Durrant and Angela Marsons.

The Dove Milson series 😍

Well written and suspenseful. Really enjoyed reading this series. I would love to have a follow up book to see if Dove and Quinn adopted children or if they didn't. Would love to read about their wedding! I would definitely read this series if you haven't!

STONE COLD KILLING by D.E. WHITE

Reviewed in the United States on December 19, 2022

This is the first book of this series that I have read. at first I felt not in sync with the narration. the book is a slightly slow pace but when you get on to it you will love the book. the topics he brought up in the book are very interesting and it made me very intrigued through out the book. Dove and her partner detective Steve Parker are driving along when suddenly she is forced to swerve as there’s a babies car seat right in the middle of the road. Dove goes to attend to the baby only to find it’s a doll. Steve on the other hand has found a car crashed just up the road, he realises the driver is missing and that there is a trail of blood leading away from the car. He later finds the driver of the car dead. This woman isn’t the first to die, and she certainly won’t be the last. As I mentioned before this is one of the book from his series but as a reader who have not read his other books I didn't feel I missed out of the characters journey. this could be read as a stand alone book by itself and enjoy the Murder mystery. Thank you Netgalley for this ARC.

As the description states, it is an addictive crime thriller.

Reviewed in the United States on November 9, 2022

In Stone Cold Killing (Detective Dove Milson #4 by D.E. White, Detective Dove Milson and her partner narrowly avoid hitting a baby's car seat in the middle of the road. Up the road, a car has crashed, and a trail of blood leads into the woods. This is book 4 in the Detective Dove Milson series. As the description states, it is an addictive crime thriller.

The storyline held my interest and had the right mix of police procedural, action, murder, and suspense. I really liked the Dove character and felt she was quite realistic in her dialogue and actions. The whole team was good together and provided the right blend of characters and depth to the story.

I would recommend this book and this series.

She did it again! Amazing!

Reviewed in the United States on November 11, 2022

This is one of those books that after those first few pages, you don't want to put it down! DC Dove Wilson is at it again in this forth book in the series. This was an interesting story that really drug me in from the first chapter, and didn't let go until the last page. The case they are working also involves an unknown cold case that had to do with children. For the most part this was Dove's story, but we also hear from an unknown (until the end) person talking about now they should have been the one chosen. This book does have some triggers in it. So if you're sensitive to child abuse, rape,and violence, just beware it is in this book. But it's written so well that it was easy to get passed all of that, I just wanted to know what happened! D.E. White writes a good, original storyline, and has a way of bringing you in to her characters lives, and you like them! I now can't wait to read the fifth book in the series lol!! Thank you to Net Galley, the author,and Joffee Books for an advanced copy of this book. Read it, you won't be let down!

Loved it! A lot going on in this whodunit!

Reviewed in the United States on November 11, 2022

This is a great whodunit that escalates quickly from one murder to three. There are multiple motives, from drug-related to child-protective, and that makes for a diverse list of suspects. The clues and discoveries point to at least 3 different potential culprits. And through it all you have witnesses that do not want to provide information or knowingly misdirect. It really made me feel for the detectives that have to work so hard to find the truth in order to solve a crime. I not only loved the main characters and the investigation, but found all the other characters helped to round out the story (whether I liked them or not!). A great read!!

Unnecessarily confusing

Reviewed in the United States on December 13, 2022

Verified Purchase

It took me way too long to realize the italicized narratives were more than one character. I'm not sure why White wrote it this way. The mystery was the why more than the who. I was beginning to think she was describing someone with multiple personalities. White also threw in a side plot which seemed ludicrous. I really liked the other novels in the series but this one didn't work.

unrealistic drivel

Reviewed in Italy on December 4, 2022

Verified Purchase

If real police were as stupid as this woman, we would all be dead. The plot holes and lack of proper police procedure was ridiculous. ( going on a shout without informing others where and when, blundering in without back up, etc) But the biggest thing for me was the writer kept mentioning a ‘black Range Rover Discovery’ This car does not exist, the writer could have spent 30 seconds on Google researching and would known that Range Rovers and Discoverys are two different cars. I prefer authors who fact check and research, so won’t read anything else from this writer.

Fiendishly paced

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on November 21, 2022

I have read the previous three novels in this series and Stone Cold Killing is a fantastic addition!

It really feels like I 'know' Dove Milson, her colleagues and family - not forgetting Quinn, her partner now, and I think that makes you even more invested in their highs and lows as the plot pulls you along.

In this story there are so many twists and turns, it kept me guessing right up to the end, a true page turner. DE White keeps you on the edge of your seat.

Roll on book five!

Good read, but

Reviewed in Australia on April 8, 2023

Verified Purchase

The Detective Dove Milson books are a generally good read, but there are few repetitive or predictable plot repetitions. Dove inevitably finds herself in physical trouble but manages to escape with her life. Generally she doesn't make rash and silly decisions that puts her life at risk, she just seems to get caught out....every one of the novels.

She is continually 'chewing her thmb nail" and this gets a bit irritating. Her determination to continue working through exhaustion and the inevitable lack of sleep, or interrupted sleep, can seem predictable, too.

However, the generally cheerful and supportive relationships between her colleagues is a welcome, as is the positive and understanding relationship with Dove's fiance.

Good read

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 11, 2022

Verified Purchase

Another good read but I felt it seemed to miss parts that could've helped them find who the murderer was quicker. Like the phone call about Gerald, surely there would've been a voice recording that they could listen to.
Bits didn't seem tied up towards the end, like there was no further mention of Evan, Connie nor the other kids or Quinns stalker.
It just seemed to finish rapidly with lots of loose ends I felt with Dove again going off and doing her thing and being injured.
Otherwise an enjoyable read and am looking forward to the next book.
