Joe and DCI Emily Thwait are called in to investigate the murder of Petulia Ferribie. She and 3 of her college friends have rented a home at 13 Torland Place. The house has a disturbing past as it was once home to Obediah Shrowton, an executed murderer who was hanged after killing his family in their home. Joe wonders if there is any connection between Petulia’s murder and the house’s history. Then, other bodies begin to show up with a similar theme.
I like this series even though it has a touch of supernatural along with the murder mystery. Although I could do with a little less Emily, I really enjoy the Joe Plantangenet character. This previous 2 books in this series were better than this 3rd installment due to the convoluted storyline but it was still entertaining, suspenseful and kept the reader guessing ‘til the end. I will definitely be continuing with this series.
Rating: 3.5 stars
