The Santa Killer
The Santa Killer is coming to town…
One night less than two weeks before Christmas, a single mother is violently assaulted. It’s a brutal crime at the time of year when there should be goodwill to all. When DI Barton begins his investigation, he’s surprised to find the victim is a woman with nothing to hide and no reason for anyone to hurt her.
A few days later, the mother of the woman attacked rings the police station. Her granddaughter has drawn a shocking picture. It seems she was looking out of the window when her mother was attacked. And when her grandmother asks the young girl who the person with the weapon is, she whispers two words.
Bad Santa.
The rumours start spreading, and none of the city’s women feel safe - which one of them will be next?
He’s got a list. It’s quite precise. It won’t matter even if you’re nice.

I've written 22 books in eleven years (even I can do that maths). They're a range of suspense novels, police procedural and psychological thrillers. My detective series starring DI John Barton starts with The Snow Killer and has sold half a million copies, and my Norfolk Murders series with DI Ashley Knight begins with her battling to catch a serial killer in Death on Cromer Beach.
I was born in 1973 in Peterborough and lived there until I was 20, attending The King's School in the city. I then began a rather nomadic existence, living and working all over the country and various parts of the world.
DI Barton
DI Barton consists of eight books. The current recommended reading order for the series is provided below.
