From the blurb: 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. Purchase Link Publisher: Boldwood Books Publication date: September 9th, 2022  My thoughts: Dark and grim, but so well-written! If you've really enjoyed reading about DI Barton and his team, you'll be disappointed to find out this is the last instalment in the series. If this is your first Ross Greenwood book, don't worry-it can be read as a standalone and you can always go back and read about the team's previous cases. A single mother is brutally attacked practically on her doorstep. The only witness, her young daughter, who is on the spectrum, draws a basic picture and says two mysterious words 'Bad Santa'. When another woman is assaulted in a similar way and a local DJ receives an ominous letter saying that the Santa Killer is coming to town, the race to solve the mystery and find the attacker begins. Expect lots of suspects, unpredictable twists and turns that will keep on the edge of your seat. Another compelling page-turner from Ross Greenwood!
