Scimitar — Celina Grace

A terrorist atrocity rips through London the day before the body of a young Asian man is found in the grounds of a stately home, near the West Country town of Abbeyford. DI Kate Redman and her team take on the case, but are hampered by a lack of identification on the body, not to mention the odd location of the crime scene.

Eventually, they identify the young man as a certain Ibrahim Bashir, but this only leads to more confusion �" because it seems that Ibrahim Bashir died fifty years ago…

Scimitar is the twelfth in the Kate Redman Mysteries series, by USA Today bestselling author Celina Grace.


Praise for the Kate Redman Mysteries, from Amazon and Goodreads reviewers:

"Celina Grace gives us not only an unusual and well-built plot, but also a story which talks about too often forgotten humanity, the voice of ordinary people who lose their lives by meaningless acts of terrorism. Personal and choral human dramas intersect in a mystery that will keep you glued to the page until the end as it did for me."

"I love the Kate Redman series. At this point, I feel like the characters are old friends and have been through many life changes with them. Celina Grace is a masterful story teller with the ability to set the scenes in such a way that the reader can see them exactly. "

“One of the best I have read this year. I read about a fourth of the book early in the day, then at bedtime, I thought I would read a bit more before sleep. I finished the book at 5:20 AM. Just could not put it down.”

“At last, a mystery that delivers…I found this novel superb because I got all I needed to know and none of what I didn't.”

“…a gripping detective story but the main character engages you, and as well as wanting to know how the mystery turns out you want to learn more about her too.”

“…amazing book, read it front to back in one visit, couldn`t help myself…”
