Conspiracy on the Levels (Detective Kate Hamblin Mystery #16)

Elderly Agnes Everard doesn’t stand a chance. The car slams into her at breakneck speed, then vanishes in a cloud of billowing smoke and burned rubber.

Hours later, two officers knock on Detective Kate’s door. A witness swears it was Kate who hit Agnes Everard — and the evidence agrees.

Kate knows it’s a lie. But before she can fight back, she’s suspended, her badge stripped away, her reputation in tatters.

With the help of her loyal husband Hayden — the only person who believes she’s innocent — Kate sets out to investigate. A tip-off leads to a rented flat in Highbridge . . . and a body at the foot of the stairs, neck snapped, eyes staring. Kate realizes Agnes wasn’t the only target.

Someone is orchestrating this. Someone who’s watching Kate closely.

Someone who knows exactly how to destroy her — and is prepared to kill anyone who gets in the way.

With her career on the line and the net tightening, Kate must uncover who wants her ruined — before she becomes the next body on the floor.
