Heiress Kerenza Trezise was about to marry the man she loved... until she shocked everyone by taking her own life in front of the wedding party.

Still bearing the scars of her last case, private investigator Blake Hollow knows the Trezise suicide could be the one to put her back in the game. But as she delves into the tragedy at the ancient Frenchman's Creek manor, where mist clings to granite walls and locals whisper of old curses, Blake uncovers a family steeped in darkness.

The Trezises guard their secrets behind wealth and influence, and they'll use every weapon at their disposal—from subtle manipulation to outright violence—to keep Blake from exposing the horrifying truth about Kerenza's death.

They say family is forever. But they have never met the Trezise family...

A Gothic murder mystery where ancient Cornish legends collide with modern-day murder, Down in the Blood takes readers on a twisting journey of horror and deceit that will grip fans of British crime fiction until its chilling conclusion.
