Her Lonely Soul: An absolutely unputdownable Irish crime novel with an unforgettable twist - Paperback

by S. a. Dunphy (Author)

'I've come to report a murder, ' the little girl declares, lips trembling, her head only just high enough to see over the police counter. 'Please, you have to help me.'

When tearful young Ellie O'Farrell walks into a rural Irish police station to report she's dreamed a murder that hasn't happened yet, she is gently, but firmly, sent on her way. But the very next night a beloved local grandfather is found dead, lethal knife wounds showing a struggle exactly as she'd described. How did innocent Ellie know what was going to happen?

Called in to investigate, Detective Tessa Burns has never seen anything like this. Meeting Ellie and her desperate parents, it's clear Ellie's home is filled with love. She swears she has never met the victim: Tessa's case seems to stall before it's even begun. But when Tessa gets a frantic call from the young girl only days later to say she's had a terrifying second dream, the race is on to prevent another murder.

Was Tessa's usually flawless instinct about Ellie's home life wrong? Has Ellie overheard something she shouldn't? With only hours to go until Ellie's terrible prediction comes true, Tessa is shocked to get a deadly warning from someone in her own dark past. Leave the case alone, or she - and Ellie - are next.

Tessa refuses to stop her investigation - it's the only way to save Ellie. But then a deadly attack leaves Tessa's team fighting for their lives, and Ellie taken... Tessa would risk everything to unmask the most twisted killer she's ever encountered. But first she must rescue Ellie, before it's too late for them all...

A totally unputdownable Irish police procedural with jaw-dropping twists. Perfect for fans of Patricia Gibney, Lisa Regan and Angela Marsons.
