Death in the Family (Mcgown, Jill) Book
With a plot that defies the most inspired second-guessing and with menace ticking quietly away on every page, Jill McGownâ??s Death in the Family firmly establishes her as a master of mystery and psychological suspense. This gritty, sophisticated novel is the twelfth in the authorâ??s internationally acclaimed series starring Chief Detective Inspector Lloyd and his colleague and lover, Chief Detective Inspector Judy Hill.Dean Fletcher had spent virtually all his twenty-four years doing things practically guaranteed to land him in trouble. But not until he fell for a blonde nymphet named Kayleigh Scott did he manage to totally ruin his life. Kayleigh had told him she was eighteen. In truth, she was not quite thirteen, and poor Dean was soon off to prison, a convicted sex offender, still smitten with his adolescent lover.Now heâ??s finally free again, only to be ensnared by two crimes that have Lloyd pulling out whatâ??s left of his hair. One is an infant kidnapping (the child was born within hours of Lloydâ??s and Judyâ??s own baby, Charlotte); the other is the murder of Kayleighâ??s mother, Lesley, on the very eve of the familyâ??s sudden move to Australia.Fortunately, Lloyd thinks he hears the ring of truth in Deanâ??s protestations of innocence. He is extremely curious about Lesleyâ??s new lover, Ian, who has jumped headfirst into another relationship, and her old lover, Phil, whose world she had destroyed. And for all her air of placid innocence, Kayleigh herself isnâ??t above suspicion.With Judy out on maternity leave, Lloyd is obliged to pick his way alone through the minefield of birth, death, murder, and domestic evil. Death in the Family is a novel of uncanny power and chilling credibility.Read More
