The Screwdriver Killer

Please note this is a revised edition of Red is the Colour. An eye for an eye . . . Detective Bethany Smith is looking at a map that was delivered to the police station. On the map is a dot that marks a spot where a body is buried. It’s on Shadwell Hill. Bethany and her team race to the scene and discover a freshly dug mound in a forested area. The mound contains the broken body of sixty-five-year-old Margaret Allthrop, a distant royal and local celebrity. But her burial was anything but regal . . . Margaret has a red gash on her face and is missing not only an eye, but part of her posterior. Days later, another map and a letter are delivered to the station: Dear Police, I did a vile thing again. It’s going to be a bit of a habit. You’ll need a peg for your nose when you get there. From, Me.
