The Redeemed - Softcover
The body of a dead man is discovered in an overgrown cemetery in Bristol, the sign of the cross gouged into his flesh. At first it seems to coroner Jenny Cooper that all the evidence points to a horrific, if routine, suicide.
Then an enigmatic young priest, Father Lucas Starr, arrives on Jenny’s doorstep, entreating her to hold an inquest into the death of Eva Donaldson, a high profile political campaigner whose past life continued to haunt her. A young man, Paul Craven, has recently been sentenced for Eva’s brutal murder. But despite Craven’s conviction and the evidence against him, Father Lucas is convinced of the man’s innocence.
Jenny’s investigations into Eva’s death will lead her to a powerful new religious organisation and to those who control it. When it later emerges that the man found in the cemetery was also a member of the group, Jenny discovers that more could link the deaths of these victims than she could have realized.

“All the makings of a franchise heroine.”—Kirkus Reviews
"[Jenny Cooper] seeks the truth, whatever it takes, and with an apparent fearlessness that makes the reader's heart race. . . . This is a clever and complex novel.”—The Courier Mail (Australia)
