They never proved he killed his wife. Half the station still believes he did.

Twelve years ago, DI Ryan Hale’s wife Jaime vanished without a trace. He was never charged, but the suspicion followed him all the way to London, where a brutal kidnapping left him scarred, inside and out.

Now he’s back in Chesterfield, leading a new team and searching for answers about Jaime that no one else could find.

But before his feet are under the desk a pair of German backpackers find a gruesome pagan ritual at the Nine Ladies Stone Circle. Someone’s been taking trophies and arranging them as offerings to ancient gods.

As the body count rises and ritual symbols point to Derbyshire’s pagan fringe, Ryan must earn the trust of a team who barely know him while half the station whispers “murderer” behind his back.

Then evidence from Jaime’s case surfaces. Not by accident. Because the person who took her didn’t just want her gone. They wanted Ryan to suffer. And they’re not finished.

Perfect for fans of JD Kirk, Rachel McLean and Elly Griffiths, Bury the Truth launches a gripping new crime thriller series featuring a detective who must solve the case that could destroy him, or finally set him free.

LAST TAKE

DI RYAN HALE CRIME THRILLER - BOOK 2

PREORDER NOW. Coming 20th January.

A celebrity murder. A killer on set. A detective with everything to lose.

DI Ryan Hale thought trading the mean streets of London for Derbyshire would mean straightforward cases and quieter nights. He was wrong.

When Cyrus Wilde, a problematic A-list actor, goes missing from the studio lot of a prestige fantasy TV show filming in the Peak District, Ryan and his team are thrust into the cut-throat world of Hollywood egos, studio politics, and artfully constructed lies. Everyone had a motive. The co-star he wanted fired, the women he harassed, the costume designer with a secret, and the producer losing millions due to his toxic behaviour.

But before Ryan can separate fact from fiction, the bodies start to drop.

There’s someone on set who’ll kill to keep their secrets.

As the studio’s lawyers obstruct his investigation and pressure mounts from above, Ryan must navigate a maze of hidden agendas and false truths. Meanwhile, an unauthorised investigation into a decade-old cold case threatens to derail everything, and cost him his career.

With his team in the line of fire and time running out, Ryan faces an impossible choice. Follow the rules, or catch a killer before they strike again.

If you like fast-paced police procedurals, compelling characters, and shocking twists, then you’ll love R.K. Lynott’s LAST TAKE. Perfect for fans of JM Dalgleish, LJ Ross, JD Kirk and Rachel McLean.
