THE CLEANSING
About This Book

Christmas approaches. A killer dressed as a clown haunts the streets of Manchester.  For him the City’s miraculous regeneration had unacceptable consequences.  This is the reckoning.  DCI Tom Caton enlists the help of forensic profiler Kate Webb, placing her in mortal danger. 

 

The trail leads from the site of the old mass cholera graves, through Moss Side, the Gay Village, the penthouse opulence of canalside apartment blocks, and the bustling Christmas Market, to the Victorian Gothic grandeur of the Town Hall. 

 

Time is running out.  For Tom, for Kate…and for the City.

 

The Cleansing, was Short listed for the Long Barn Books Debut Novel competition.
