Bloodstone Investigations bring us back to London in 1892 with ‘Killer Friends’ book four in ‘The Bloodstone’ series. Each book in this series stands alone, but in ‘A Venomous Love’ (book three), we learned how challenging it was to solve crimes in the 1800’s. With no fancy labs or DNA testing, Detective Rudyard Bloodstone and his partner Detective Archie Holbrook are now faced with a missing person investigation.
This historical mystery suspense thriller will shock your senses as Phillip Newell, and his beloved dog “Snowball” answer the front door of their home. Once the door opens, you will be kept in suspense, and you will not want to put this book down. Keep in mind that Author Chris Karlsen is a retired police detective. Her fictional stories are grounded in experience and exhaustive research of this historic time in London. Her characters are believable, edgy, raw, and true to the times. Her descriptive details bring her readers into the streets of London to experience the sights, sounds and even smells. If you love a good mystery, you will love reading ‘Killer Friends’.
A mother’s intuition bringsHenrietta Newell into the detective bureau. Her son, Phillip Newell, is a bachelor in his thirties, living in a city where nightlife can indulge many inclinations. Detective Ruddy and Detective Archie’s reluctance to take her son’s three-day disappearance serious, Henrietta is not above throwing her weight and political connections around.
Detective Ruddy and Archie began to search Phillip Newell’s home. They go over every room, every dresser and storage, even the pockets of Newell’s coats and find nothing. It was in the pantry that they found a bloody tea towel. Little did they know that this was the beginning of an investigation that would lead them into a twisted retail investment scheme, that would pit partners and friends against each other. If that wasn’t enough, their investigation would take them “from the world of wealthy families and into the secret society of sexual peculiarities.
One question remains: Even if Phillip Newell is presumed dead, where is his body?
I encourage you to follow the ‘Bloodstone’ investigation from start to finish. Pick up all the books in The Bloodstone Series, Knights In Time Series, Love & War Series, Dark Water Series, Broken Faces (Historical Romance Based on True WWI Events) and a Holiday Selection: ‘Choosing Home or Heart’ (a Christmas story where Victorian detective Rudyard Bloodstone, from ‘The Bloodstone Series’, goes home to Wales for the holidays and introduces his lady love to his family. No murder, just a warm-hearted holiday novella).
