Dahlia has made a decision. A victim of cruel incarceration, she’s going to kill her husband. She’s been planning it for months, her escape from him and the awful life she’s been leading. Roger is a gaslighter, a vicious and vindictive man, keeping a tight rein on her with his threats about the past.
She’s killed someone before, and he knows it. Now it’s time to put everything behind her and start again.
George and Greg Wilkes won’t let anyone working at The Angel go unprotected. The murder has to be done quickly, though, because the twins have another job on their hands, one that will give another estate leader a longer reach. For two days, their calendar will be full, but George thrives on murder and mayhem, and he’s in his element, a new torture weapon in his arsenal.
Who is the man approaching Dahlia by the shops?
What has he done to her without her knowledge?
And will the bodies of depraved men’s previous victims get the proper burials they deserve?
The Cardigan Estate, where The Brothers look after their own and make people disappear. Welcome to Dahlia’s new world.

Absolutely brilliant. I had been waiting for this book to come out as usual I was not disappointed.
One of things that stood out to me is how Greg and George have made it safe for the girls to work and how much they respect the girls.
We see another an in introduction to Janine as a new cop in their pay and I look forward to her back story.
I cant wait for the next book
