TANA COLLINS: Point Blank

FREE EVENT
Come and celebrate the launch of Tana Collins' gripping new crime thriller, Point Blank - the first in a new series exploring justice, lies and the cost of asking too many questions. Tana will be in conversation with fellow author Olga Wojtas.
About the book:
In a Scottish village where the past stays buried, one detective refuses to look away…
When a devoted family man is found dead on his doorstep in a historic fishing village on Scotland’s east coast, the community is left reeling. With DI Carruthers out of action, DS Andrea Fletcher is thrust into the lead for the first time — and this case is anything but straightforward.
There are no witnesses, no clear motive or clues, and nothing to explain how a killer just disappeared into the darkness.
As Fletcher begins to investigate, she uncovers whispers of an older crime with ties to the same house. But the case was closed years ago and the man convicted for it is still behind bars. Officially, the past is settled. Unofficially, it doesn’t sit right and as Fletcher pushes deeper, the more resistance she meets — not just from suspects, but from within her own ranks.
With the pressure mounting, personal wounds resurfacing and a killer who always seems one step ahead, Fletcher is forced down multiple paths. But can she uncover what really happened before another victim is murdered?
Because it’s clear that someone will do anything to make sure the truth stays buried.
About the author:
Edinburgh-based crime writer, Tana Collins is the internationally best selling author of the popular Inspector Jim Carruthers detective series published by Bloodhound Books. The series is set in the picturesque East Neuk of Fife and is described by writer Sarah Ward as Tartan Noir at its best. Her debut novel, Robbing the Dead, became an Amazon Number One bestseller for Scottish crime fiction, swiftly followed by Care to Die, the second in the series, which was hailed by crime writer Peter Robinson as “A finely plotted mystery.” Her books have been described as 'character driven with hugely emotional plots.’ Her latest book, Point Blank, is the final in the current series but also starts a brand new series featuring DS Andrea Fletcher.
