Ollie Moorhouse is a struggling journalist, heavily in debt and fearful of losing his increasingly restless
girlfriend. When his editor offers him the chance of pursuing an intriguing story, Ollie is hopeful that it will solve
his personal and financial problems. His investigations lead him to an eccentric peer of the realm, a grieving
philanthropist, a homeless drug addict and a wealthy landowner. But what is that connects them?

As events move between London, Wiltshire and Eastern Europe, Ollie finds himself caught up in a web of
blackmail and murder. With the help of his girlfriend, he starts to piece together the puzzle but, in the process,
becomes a key suspect. What is motivating the murderer, and who is the real killer?
Winter Kill is a gripping and thrilling read and the third book from the author of The Colours of the Dance and
