When Blood Runs Dry

The Deadly Wolds Murder Mysteries, Book 6

By: Jack Cartwright

Narrated by: Graham Mack

Everyone knew his name. Nobody knew the truth....

When world-class chef Jules Lemar is found dead in his own home, detectives quickly rule out natural causes. A livid bruise encircling his neck leaves little doubt that he was murdered. What remains unclear is how—and why.

Detective Inspector George Larson and his team are confronted with a scene that offers few answers. There are no signs of a struggle, every door and window is locked, and no murder weapon can be found. With the evidence leading nowhere, the investigation stalls.

It is only when the team begins to peel back the layers of Lemar’s past that the case takes an unexpected turn. Beneath the public image of a celebrated chef lies a history that drags the investigation into uncharted territory—and toward a truth darker than any of them anticipated.

When Blood Runs Dry is the unputdownable sixth book in Jack Cartwright’s best-selling Deadly Wolds mystery series.

Fans of Jack Cartwright also enjoy books by JM Dalgliesh, LJ Ross, Ann Cleeves, JD Kirk, and Simon McCleave.
