Fin Du Monde (Delphine Rougier Book 5)

by Sally Spedding

It’s Saturday, 6th November 2010 in the popular Pyrenean tourist town of Orne-les Bains on a wet, wind-blown morning, the pregnant Lieutenant Delphine Rougier, now married to Lieutenant-Colonel Alonso Diaz and on maternity leave, is out shopping when she suddenly receives a shocking phone call from an anonymous caller. Whether male or female is impossible to tell.

This stops her in her tracks.

‘Whore, bitch, slag!’ that voice snarls, followed by a terrible threat that her baby will die, foreshadowing months of fear and anguish delivered by other so-far unknown predators.

But why? And above all, who?

What in her past could have triggered such vileness? And what will the consequences be for both her, Alonso and their beautiful new daughter Rose, named after a generous, elderly benefactor who’d later drowned herself in the River Sarthe?
As one crisis leads to another, who will live and who will die in those stunning surroundings where that huge, holy but treacherous Pic de Canigou reigns over all?

‘Sally Spedding has unquestionably got what it takes.’ – Crime Time.
