He's acidic and twisted; a prince of sarcasm who hates people. Not ideal qualities in a CSI. But what CSI Eddie Collins lacks in people skills, he more than makes up for in crime scene expertise. But this time, Eddie has doubts; this time, the evidence is wrong. Jessica Ripley didn't kill her ex-husband. But everyone thinks she did. After serving twelve years for his murder, it's time to get her own back on those who put her inside. It isn't long before she learns what it's like to really murder someone. She's becoming whole again, incrementally rebuilding herself by stealing the lives of those she blames for stealing hers. But things aren't always how they appear; sometimes old friends aren't friends at all. Sometimes, it's just business. And sometimes the evidence lies. Can CSI Eddie Collins trust the evidence, or is someone out to get even? And if Jessica didn't kill her ex, who did? If you like fast-paced and gripping crime thrillers with a strong forensic element, you'll love Andrew Barrett's Black by Rose. It will appeal to fans of authors like Kathy Reichs, Robert Bryndza and Angela Marsons. What people say about The Death of Jessica Ripley * This has to be one of the best and most original crime thrillers that I have read. * Exquisite and totally believable. * Another stunning instalment in the fantastic Eddie Collins series. * The Death of Jessica Ripley will haunt you for a long time to come. * A suspenseful revenge thriller. * Everything about this book is enthralling. * The Death of Jessica Ripley starts at 100 mph and then speeds up! * The action does not pause for a second and when you find yourself at the end of the book, it's quite a shock that you ended up there so quickly. * The story around Jessica Ripley is desperately sad, brilliantly executed and full of compassion. * It's a book you wish you hadn't read so you could read it afresh again. * Whilst the story, and the plot, are great, the real star of this book is Eddie and the way Andrew Barrett continues to develop his character. * I love books where I can tell that the author had great fun writing it. * As usual with Andy Barrett's books, once you get into this, you lose the use of your legs, sitting in one place until you have finished it. * Send the family out for the day, forget the chores, nothing should get in the way of this one. * Pure brilliance and a Masterpiece.
