Dark Peony

Death is lurking amongst the equivocal high society of a rich Venetian town, where life is suddenly disturbed by the actions of a merciless assassin who uses strange rituals in killing his victims leaving no trace. An ordinary employee, a detective inspector, an international mercenary searching for an identity . A spine-chilling novel with all the flavour of a classic crime story but with dark undertones, as disturbing and rapid as the hand of the killer, as mysterious as the crime itself, with an exciting build-up which inexorably draws the reader into the storyline from the first page to the unusual ending..Mallory, Vincent is the author of 'Dark Peony ', published 2006 under ISBN 9781905529711 and ISBN 1905529716.
