Overview:
Making a Killing is the seventh instalment in Cara Hunter's Sunday Times bestselling DI Adam Fawley series, set among the dreaming spires of Oxford. When a true-crime television producer reopens a notorious 2016 case, DCI Fawley is dragged back into an investigation he thought was closed. Layered with fresh forensic evidence, media scrutiny and old wounds, this fast-paced paperback thriller delivers the twisty, character-driven suspense Hunter's readers expect, making it an unmissable addition to any crime fiction collection.

About the Book:
In 2016, eight-year-old Daisy Mason vanished from her Oxford home, a disappearance that gripped the nation and ended with her mother's conviction for murder—though the girl's body was never recovered. Years later, a true-crime documentary producer begins investigating the case, unearthing uncomfortable questions that DCI Adam Fawley, the original investigating officer, cannot ignore. When fresh forensic evidence surfaces at an unrelated crime scene, it throws the original verdict into doubt, pulling Fawley and his team back into a case that never truly went away. As old secrets resurface and new suspects emerge, Fawley must confront the possibility that the wrong person was convicted—and a killer has walked free for years. Cara Hunter's trademark blend of narrative, witness transcripts, news reports and social media snippets builds an immersive sense of place and pace, portraying Oxford as elegant on the surface yet harbouring dark secrets beneath. Praised by fellow crime writers as clever, twisty and addictive, the novel explores recurring themes of media influence and miscarriages of justice. This edition also includes an exclusive bonus DI Fawley short story. Whether new to the series or a long-time follower, readers will find this a satisfying, self-contained mystery.
