Love lies bleeding : a Rafferty & Llewellyn mystery

A most unlikely murderer, was DI Joe Rafferty's immediate thought when the slender and bloodied Felicity Raine stumbled into the police station reception and confessed to killing her husband. He thought her even more unlikely a murderer when he met her in-laws and caught them out in several deceits. There was something peculiar going on, he was convinced. Because although Felicity wasn't down to receive any financial benefit from her husband's death, others in the Raine family were. Was one of them attempting to set Felicity up to take the rap? Unfortunately, Rafferty's championing of the lovely Felicity seems to have stirred some jealousy on the home front. Has he blotted his copybook once too often? He wonders, when Abra, his live-in girlfriend, takes herself off to Wales citing the cover-all of 'family problems' as her reason. Perhaps, he thinks, he should look beneath the surface with Abra, as he has been advised to do in his murder investigation.He can only hope that what he discovers in his personal life isn't as unpleasant as what has been laid bare in his latest case.

  • "Raymond Raine heads one of England's leading fashion houses, which makes his stabbing death all the more shocking to family, friends, and colleagues. More shocking still is his wife Felicity's confession that she killed him. Enter detectives Joe Rafferty and Dafyd Llewellyn, who set out to determine if the case is as cut-and-dried as it appears. Most people are sympathetic to "poor Felicity," who they claim was often beaten by Ray and thus had good reason to kill him. Then Felicity retracts her confession."
