When the Devil Calls

Edmonton Police Station Thrillers, Book 5

DCI Jairus returns for his darkest outing yet, as he finds himself pursuing a deranged serial killer with a taste for strangling his female victims and dressing in their clothes.

But when Scotland Yard start digging into Jairus’ last case and threatens to hold him guilty of murder, the DCI needs help. He finds a friend and alibi in feisty forensic expert Cathy Durbridge, however it soon becomes clear that she’s just as volatile and explosive as Jairus himself.

With his murderous past catching up with him, and Cathy becoming a liability, Jairus is desperate for a way out.

So, when the devil calls and makes him an offer he can't refuse, he joins forces with a dangerous criminal gang, where, to save himself, he must commit the greatest sin of all.

Can he survive with his soul intact?

JAIRUS AT HIS BADASS BEST

The Edmonton thrillers have all been solid so far, but it’s The Amount of Evil where the series really hits its stride. Out of all the books Mark Yarwood has written featuring Jairus, this is my favourite one. The previous title “The Amount Of Evil” is nearly as good and an essential lead into this one (so go listen to that first if you haven’t already), moving onto the spinoff “Jairus’ Sacrifice”.
