Ricochet eBook

A professor and a student are dead - and nothing is as it seems. Originally published in 2002, Backlash is the third thrilling whodunit in the Jack Stryker series. From Paula Gosling, winner of the CWA Golden Dagger.

When Professor Mayhew is found, shot dead in her own home, it looks like a domestic homicide. When her student is murdered at the hospital, it looks like a mugging gone wrong. Detective Lieutenant Jack Stryker has his doubts.

Stryker’s instincts seem to be leading him awry - his relationship with Kate Trevorne has hit a rough patch, and his mind is distracted. Unbeknownst to Jack, Kate is receiving anonymous harassment - and investigating it herself. Is her secrecy keeping key information from Jack? Could these two barbarous murders truly be connected?

An intense, thrilling puzzle, Ricochet is the third entry in the series, following Monkey Puzzle and Backlash. Jack Stryker returns in The Body in Blackwater Bay.
