A body of an old woman is found battered in a ward of a disused asylum amid a freezing cold winter. DI Lew Kirby is out in charge of the case and the woman is found to be a former nurse of the asylum. Why was she murdered and who would want to kill her?

This was a real creepy read. Anything to do with disused buildings, especially hospitals give me the willies!

There were quite a few characters to keep track of, but I liked the fact they were all interwoven into the plot. There were some characters who only made brief appearances who didn’t add much to the story.

A good ending, but I kind of guessed the twist. I’d like to see more from this author as it takes a lot to creep me out!
