The Royal Baths Murder (A Yorkshire Murder Mystery Book 4)

The body of famous crime writer Damian Penrose is discovered in Harrogate’s Victorian baths. Penrose, who had a big following with the reading public, was appearing at the Yorkshire town’s crime writing festival when he was strangled. For investigating officer DCI Jim Oldroyd, the murder is worthy of a crime novel: there’s no trace of the killer and no apparent means of escape, begging the question how was the murderer able to vanish from the crime scene? As Oldroyd digs deep into the victim’s past he uncovers accusations of plagiarism, details of multiple love affairs, and feuds over money. Penrose was a ruthlessly ambitious man who left behind a trail of embittered rivals on his way to the top, but which of them was willing to commit murder? When the author’s shocking death proves to be the first of many, Oldroyd must act fast to bring a calculating killer to justice.
