Synopsis
The novels that inspired the Channel 5 TV series COOPER AND FRY, starring Robert James-Collier (Downton Abbey) and Mandip Gill (Doctor Who)
A dark psychological thriller featuring Diane Fry and Ben Cooper, in which a small community is ripped apart by arson and murder.
'Ingenious plotting and richly atmospheric' - Reginald Hill.
An assassination in the night - an open window and three bullets from the darkness - the victim a harmless middle-aged woman. But can she really be quite as innocent as she seems? The death of Rose Shepherd swarms with questions - unlike the deaths of a woman and her two children in a house fire. A tragedy, yes, but an everyday one.
Then DS Fry discovers a link between the two cases, a link that crosses the borders between nations, between right and wrong, between madness and sanity. She and Ben Cooper discover why some people are scared to live - and others are fated to die…
Praise for the Cooper and Fry series
'Stephen Booth's Black Dog sinks its teeth into you and doesn't let you go. A dark star may be born!' Reginald Hill
'In this atmospheric debut, Stephen Booth makes high summer in Derbyshire as dark and terrifying as midwinter' Val McDermid
