"If you like a mystery with an engaging case of characters, a gripping plot and plenty of twists to keep you guessing, you'll want to add this one to your reading list." JR Lindermuth on Goodreads "Like a chess game, author James R Callan moves the pieces of his story around until it's impossible to guess who the murderer is until the closing chapters.
