Live Bait

Summary

Penguin presents the audiobook edition of Live Bait by P. J. Tracy, read by Sarah Borges.

When elderly Morey Gilbert is found, lying dead in the grass by his wife, Lily, it's a tragedy, but it shouldn't have been a shock - old people die. But when she finds a bullet hole in his skull, the blood washed away by heavy rain, sadness turns to fear. It looks like an execution...

Soon a whole city is fearful as new victims are found, killed with the same cold precision. All elderly. All apparently blameless.

Detectives Gino and Magozzi, race to uncover a connection and their best hope of doing so may be Grace McBride, beautiful, damaged survivor of an earlier killing spree. And the answers, it seems, are buried in a terrible past.

Praise for P.J. Tracy:
'Her second offering doesn't disappoint. Vivid scenes, realistic characters and humorous dialogue' Time Out
'A fast-paced, gripping read with thrills and devilish twists' Guardian
