13 posts | 5 read | 2 to read
Kim knelt next to the woman lying on the cold ground of the graveyard. Eleven knife marks were visible on her clothing and her bright blonde hair was red with blood. Kim shivered as she looked at the dark brown eyes staring upwards and the final slash across the victims mouth. Her words silenced forever Late one evening, as the final church bell rings out, the body of local psychic Sandra Deakin is found in the churchs graveyard with multiple stab wounds. The first on the scene, Detective Kim Stone tries to picture who would carry out such a violent attack. Shes sure of one thing: this murder was deeply personal. The last people to see Sandra alive were a group of women who had a reading with her the night before she died. As Kim and her team pay them a visit, they soon learn that each of the women is lying about why they wanted Sandras help and that one of them is connected to an unsolved murder. Kim smashes open a case that has been closed for years, determined to chase down every lead and find justice for both victims. And as she delves into Sandras life, she learns that Sandra was banned from the church grounds and had been receiving death threats. Then the broken body of a nineteen-year-old boy is found outside a call centre for a psychic hotline a single slash across his mouth just like Sandras. Kim and her team are now racing against time to understand what has triggered these frenzied attacks, and stop a twisted killer before they strike again. But they might be too late as the curtains go up at a local psychic show, Kim sits in the audience with a feeling of utter dread certain the killer is among them. Totally addictive with a final twist that will leave you shouting out loud, youll want to inhale Deadly Fate in one sitting.

Oh my… Angela Marsons, you do it again… you leave us hanging and now the wait for the next Kim Stone. I really enjoyed the uniqueness of this story along with all the intricate details. Ugh! At least we know the next is coming! 😍

Tove_Reads If it wouldn‘t have been a pick I‘m not sure we could be friends anymore 🤣🤣🤣😳🤷🏼😜😉🫣 1y

Plenty of reading time to finish up the newest Kim Stone! 🥰 Quick get away for the weekend. Chasing a stalker and a killer with Kim and the gang is the best way to spend time in the car.

Fab as always. Good storyline about the murders and a secondary storyline that is obviously going to have some mileage in the next book 👍🏻

Tove_Reads @squirrelbrain sadly Angie had a bad connection so some questions only JD got to answer, but new book in the making, the series will not end for a loooong time. JD will end the series once he gets bored, but doesn‘t feel like it‘ll happy for many years 😍 1y
squirrelbrain That‘s good news then! I don‘t think I‘ve ever read any JD, should I be doing?! 1y
Tove_Reads @squirrelbrain Yes! DCI Jack Logan at least. 1y

Another fab Kim Stone book, which I inhaled in one sitting this afternoon - I don‘t know how Ms Marsons keeps doing it!

This one is about psychics and, like all the other books, I love how everything about the subject gets explained as we go along but without seeming obvious.

And this one has a cliffhanger at the end….or maybe you‘d call it a hangover to the next book. 🤔

Tove_Reads Starting it next! I just have to go into a panic room/wardrobe/another dimension so that I one can find me. Dogs for example are too good and they sniff me out, and demand attention. Don‘t they know it‘s Kim??? 1y
MicheleinPhilly Wait, did this come out today? I‘ve pre-ordered it but don‘t see it yet. 1y
squirrelbrain No, it‘s the 25th May @MicheleinPhilly - I had an ARC. 1y
squirrelbrain @Tove_Reads - I managed it in a campervan with a dog (and a husband!) so I‘m sure you‘ll manage! 🤣 1y
TrishB Went and checked and preordered months ago 😁 can‘t wait. 1y
