Description
When a packed commuter train runs over a body on a stretch of track known to locals as 'Suicide Mile', it soon transpires that the man was a victim of a calculated murder. As the investigation evolves and a pattern of murders is uncovered, Detective Sergeant Kay Hunter realises the railway's recent reputation may be the work of a brutal serial killer. With a backlog of cold cases to investigate and attempting to uncover who is behind a professional vendetta against her, Kay must keep one step ahead of both the killer and her own adversaries. When a second murder takes place within a week of the first, she realises the killer's timetable has changed, and she's running out of time to stop him... Will to Live is the second book in a new crime thriller series featuring Kay Hunter - a detective with a hidden past and an uncertain future... The Detective Kay Hunter series: 1. SCARED TO DEATH 2. WILL TO LIVE 3. ONE TO WATCH 4. HELL TO PAY 5. CALL TO ARMS 6. GONE TO GROUND 7. BRIDGE TO BURN What readers are saying about Will to Live: "Will to Live is a race against time. It is fast and furious with no indication given as to who, what and how until you turn the last few pages. I mentioned in my previous review of Scared To Death that this series would transfer very well to film or TV and I still believe that to be the case. Kay Hunter is the perfect protagonist. She is tough. She is fair. She has a heart." - Swirl & Thread "The opening of this book is dynamite and I loved it! Just brilliant." - Jen Med's Book Reviews "One of the top crime thriller series out there! If you like your crime thrillers with a twist of psychological suspense and a smattering of procedure and a hint of hostility and grudges, then Will to Live is one for you! Fast paced, twisty and hooking you in from the start just make sure you don't have a looming "to do" list in front of you because once you pick this up you are not going to want to put it down!" - Chapter in my Life "I really, really love this series! I absolutely love Kay Hunter! She has just the right mix of professionalism and dedication but with a vulnerability that draws you to her." - My Chestnut Reading Tree "Starts with a bang and the tension gathers momentum!" - Bibliophile Book Club "BOOM the plot twist surprised me and I didn't see it coming!" - The Stationery Geekette Who would you recommend Will to Live to? I think anyone who enjoys the Erika Foster series by Robert Bryndza, Angela Marsons' Kim Stone novels, and Peter James' Roy Grace books would enjoy Will to Live. It's a fast-paced crime thriller, so if you enjoy that element of the crime genre, I'd suggest giving it a go. After your successful series of thrillers with Dan Taylor, plus three single titles you've now started on a series with a female detective. What made you decide to change to crime? It was as simple as the story idea popping into my head with the female detective already in tow. When I get an idea, it's like remembering a scene from a film - I can see the whole thing in my head, so once I had that original idea, I started to jot down notes and get some very basic outlines down for stories for what turned out to be the start of a new series. Are you planning more Kay Hunter novels? Definitely. I set out to write the first book in the series, Scared to Death with the knowledge that there would be more books featuring Kay Hunter. She's got some scores to settle yet, and there are always cases to solve.
