A Murder of Clowns: The Second Book in the Superintendent Lorrie Sullivan Series - Superintendent Lorrie Sullivan Angela Hossack

Members of Parliment are being brutally murdered and grotestuely posed in clown costumes. Superintendent Lorrie Sullivan has the unenviable task of leading her team in the investigation into their deaths. But, Lorrie has demons of her own to contend with. Recently returned to duty after a six month absence - during which she struggled to come to terms with her devastating grief - she is not only preoccuppied with a case that confounds and horrifies, but she becomes ensnared once again in the hunt for the Reaper - the seriel killer who almost destroyed her life. Thwarted at almost every turn by an interfering Home Secretary and with the death toll rising, Lorrie has to bury her grief, reassert herself and work out how the past abuse of a child is now related to the MPs gruesome deaths. She has to solve the case and catch the killer before the ultimate murder brings about the destruction of Her Majesy's Government. Not only does this novel introduce to the readers a uniquely damaged and flawed man who, despite - and in spite - of his visible torment and very real pain is hell-bent on expunging the horror of his past through graphic and often obsecene methods, but the novel also brings to a gripping conclusion the hunt for the Reaper.
