About the book: A family is gunned down in the snow but one of the children survives. Three years on, that child takes revenge and the Snow Killer is born. But then, nothing - no further crimes are committed, and the case goes cold.
Fifty years later, has the urge to kill been reawakened?
As murder follows murder, the detective team tasked with solving the crimes struggle with the lack of leads. It is a race against time and the weather – each time it snows another person dies.
As an exhausted and grizzled DI Barton and his team scrabble to put the pieces of the puzzle together, the killer is hiding in plain sight.
Meanwhile, the murders continue.
The Snow Killer (2019) is the first instalment in the excellent DI Barton Investigation series set in Peterborough. Currently, there are seven books in the series, the latest being The Village Killer (2024) which is out now.
About the author: Ross Greenwood is the award-winning mystery and crime thriller author from Peterborough, UK, where he spent his childhood and most of his early adulthood years. After he left his hometown, he lived and worked all over the United States and across the world. Nonetheless, he found himself going back to Peterborough many times over the years. Before becoming a full-time writer, he was, for four years, a prison officer and so worked everyday with murderers, rapists and thieves.
