Death Bed

The fourth in the detective series featuring DI Geraldine Steel

When the bodies of two black girls are discovered in North London, the pressure is on to find a killer before the case divides the local community.

But motive seems to go far beyond race in DI Geraldine Steel's first investigation in the nation's capital.

Two teeth were extracted from each victim, and when this information is leaked to the press, there is a media frenzy over the unusual MO.

As the police pursue their lead suspect, a third girl goes missing.

With the death toll mounting, time is running out for Geraldine as she hunts for the elusive killer the media are calling 'The Dentist'.
