Killed in Cornwall
by Janie Bolitho
DI Jack Pearce is investigating a series of burglaries and brutal attacks on young women which has broken out in Cornwall. Once again his on-off girlfriend Rose Trevelyan finds herself at the heart of the investigation.With her intimate knowledge of the private lives of those connected to the case, Rose must work hard not to jump to conclusions about the innocence of those she knows. As the crimes become more serious, both newcomers to the area and familiar faces become suspects. But who should Rose – and Jack – believe?From Publishers WeeklyFans of more traditional Anglophilic fare will welcome Jane Bolitho's Killed in Cornwall, the author's sixth novel to feature artist Rose Trevelyan (Framed in Cornwall, etc.). Rose's occasional boyfriend, DI Jack Pearce, investigates a series of burglaries and attacks on young women, but as in previous books the mystery-solving takes second place to Bolitho's sensitive portrayal of the people of Cornwall.
