Summary

A victim on display. A detective on the rails.

Shopping with her sister, DI Amy Winter is admiring a Valentine’s Day window display of a perfect bride encrusted in diamonds and resplendent in lace - until she notices blood oozing from the mannequin’s mouth.

This is no stunt. A post-mortem reveals the victim was left to die on her macabre throne for all to see. When a second victim is found, it emerges that both women were "Sugar Babes" arranging dates with older men online - and Amy finds herself hunting an accomplished psychopath.

As she tracks down the killer, Amy’s instincts go into overdrive when the charismatic head of the agency behind the display makes no attempt to hide his fascination with her serial-killer parents. What exactly does he want from Amy? With her own world in freefall as her biological mother, Lillian Grimes, appeals her conviction, Amy pushes the boundaries of police procedure when a third "Sugar Babe" disappears...Is she as much at risk as the killer’s victims?

Left for dead

Format: audiobook
Narrator: Elizabeth Knowelden

A very good crime thriller series, I like DI Amy Winter, her being the daughter of ‘the Beasts of Brentwood’ a serial killer couple, without a doubt gives her an insight into those her and her unit are tasked with catching but it can also make her a target for a twisted mind.

After stumbling across the first victim Amy pretty quickly suspects who the killer is but just how will she prove it?
Our insightful heroine will put her life on the line to catch the killer but has she gone too far out the lines this time?
The next book is already on my kindle.

Again this narrator does a brilliant job enabling you to become fully engrossed in the story.

Very entertaining

A very enjoyable third instalment of this series. Although it’s yet another police officer who flouts the rules of collecting evidence and police procedures with impunity. But then it’s fiction so I’ll get over it!

Left for Dead

The twist in this one surprised me. The killer gets off on the death of his victims, but it’s why he has this specific ritual that will surprise you. Wanting to escape her past the lead officer chose this life to put away killers. But her family is thrown into her face often. The story does drag on a bit. The narration is nice and easy to listen to.

Good

This is a good listen from start to finish, good characters and well written. This is the first Amy Winter I've listened to and although book 3 it does well as a stand alone. Highly recommended.

AMAZING PLOT …

What a brilliant crime story - a true thriller from start to finish -
Even so one learns in the first chapter who the villain is- the story builds up to an amazing Crescendo!!!

Bravo 👍

I love the Amy Winters series

This is another great thriller The back story of Amy’s is brilliant and gives great scope for more great storylines. I await the next one with anticipation. I also would like to say Elizabeth Knowelden is great as the narrator.
