On Cold Ground -- D. S. Butler

 On Cold Ground -- D.S. Butler

She read

Publication Date: March 25, 2021

This is the fifth in the Karen Hart detective series; it is the second one I have read.  On a cold winter night, a body is discovered in Lincoln Cathedral.  The victim has been strangled and a cross was etched into his forehead.  After the murderer sends a note to Karen’s DI, her team is split up and a new DCI and team join Karen in the investigation.  This new DCI seems to have it in for Karen.  Could he be part of the corruption that has haunted the department? After a second body is found, it seems there may be a ritualistic serial killer at large. Is Karen in danger?


Told from two points of view, Karen’s and the killer’s, this book is fast paced, with tight writing and likable protagonists. Fans of British police procedurals will enjoy this story, as well as others in the series.
