SIGHT OF DEATH by GILL DYE
Kent Based Rocker draws on Life on the Road for her debut novel – now published – just 20 years after writing it!
SIGHT OF DEATH is a fast-paced retro thriller that hurls you into the heady pulse of 1980s rock; compelling and surprising, laced with wit, romance, and plot twists.
A Journalist with the psychic ability to foresee death is drawn into a perilous mystery. It’s April 1985; Mahina King joins a British rock band on tour in Texas, where a tarot reading reveals that one of them will die! When tragedy strikes back in the UK on the North York Moors, only Mahina believes it’s murder. Even her detective best friend can’t prove it.
As Mahina investigates, she’s pulled into a dangerous predicament and quickly becomes the killer’s next target.
