You always hurt the ones you love...
You always hurt the ones you love...
The third novel in the DI Mike Lockyer series
A marriage is what you make it, isn't it? It's what you put into it. It's not just about love, it's about understanding another person's point of view. Sometimes there are things you find out about yourself and each other which means the marriage has to end. Sad, particularly when kids are involved - but all pretty normal.
Normal that is, until there's a murder.
DS Jane Bennett and DI Mike Lockyer are called in to investigate one of the South London murder squad's most difficult and distressing cases yet - where family and friends come under scrutiny in the hardest of circumstances.

You probably think I'm just scared, don't you? You might even think I won't have what it takes to do it when the time comes, but you could not be more wrong. I always stand by my word. Always. I don't make decisions without thinking. If I say something, I mean it. I will do it, and no one can stop me. Marriage is complicated. It doesn't always work out. Sometimes there are things you discover about yourself and each other which mean the marriage has to end. Sad, particularly when kids are involved - but all pretty normal. Normal that is, until there's a murder.
