Mark, David John, 1977-2025
Books
Salome Delaney didn't have a great start in life. But her abusive childhood came to a tragic conclusion with the killing of her tyrant mother, Trina, by a jealous ex-boyfriend. At least, that's what the police say. Sal has never believed kind Wulf, who tried to protect her from her mother's dark side, could have committed murder, but the evidence was irrefutable. Now an adult, with a job as a Collison Investigation Officer, Sal's done her best to put the past behind her. But one morning she's called to an accident scene, and she recognises the body - Barry Ford, the man her mother left Wulf for, all those years ago. It soon becomes clear this wasn't just an accident - it was murder. And Wulf, now out of prison, lives very close by. The question of who really killed her mother has haunted Sal her whole life, but as she launches an investigation, she starts to wonder if she really wants to know what happened.
