Blunt Force

by La Plante, Lynda

  But though they may be in the money, they’re far from easy street.

  Shocked by her husband’s betrayal, Dolly discovers Harry Rawlins isn’t dead. He knows where the four women are and he wants them to pay. And he doesn’t just mean getting his hands on the money.

  The women can’t keep running. They have to get Harry out of their lives for good. But can they outwit a criminal mastermind who won’t hesitate to kill?

  Especially when one of them has a plan of her own . . . to kill or be killed.

  SHE’S OUT

  After serving a lengthy sentence for the murder of her husband, Dolly Rawlins is free from prison. And she’s only got one thing on her mind: the diamonds she stashed before the police caught her.

  But there are people waiting for Dolly on the outside. Tough ex-prisoners who know about the diamonds, and they all want a cut.

  Also waiting for Dolly is DS Mike Withey. He holds her personally responsible for the death of his sister in the diamond raid ten years earlier. And he wants her back inside.

  Dolly Rawlins has other plans. But can she realise the dream that kept her going all those years in prison and avoid those who are after her?
