Lee Brook’s Homicide and Major Enquiry Team cases are lightning-quick, fast-paced, edge-of-your-seat novellas with action from the first page to the last. Designed to be read in one sitting—on the train, plane, or in the car—each one is a story-driven shot of entertainment from the West Yorkshire Crime Thrillers universe.



This novella is designed to be read between novels ten and eleven.



In the gritty streets of Bingley, Bradford, a chilling echo of the past resurfaces in 2023.



When the lifeless body of a woman is discovered, it sends shockwaves through the community. The Bradford Homicide and Major Enquiry Team swiftly converges on the scene, alongside the meticulous Crime Scene Investigation unit and an unflinching pathologist. Their grim findings reveal a sinister reality: the victim was struck mercilessly on the back of her skull with a ball pein hammer, and then subjected to a frenzied assault, the weapon of choice—a Phillips-head screwdriver.



As whispers of a Ripper copycat assail the town, Detective Superintendent Jim Smith, a seasoned investigator who once prowled the same blood-soaked streets during Peter Sutcliffe's reign of terror, is summoned to the fore. With a lifetime of grim experience etched into his soul, he's the only one who comprehends the malevolent undertones of this heinous crime.
