The Kate Redman Mysteries: Volume 5: Performance, Hunt, Muse - Paperback

by Celina Grace (Author)

This is the boxed set of the last three full-length books in the USA Today bestselling series, The Kate Redman Mysteries, containing the novels Performance (Book 13), Hunt (Book 14) and Muse (Book 15).

Performance (A Kate Redman Mystery: Book 13)

The strangled body of a young woman is discovered in a park in the West Country town of Abbeyford, clad in a leopard skin coat but with no identification, no phone, no handbag. DI Kate Redman and her team take on the case and manage to identify the victim through her role in a local theatre production.

But the questions keep coming: why was the victim estranged from her family? Who was the shadowy boyfriend she was hiding from her friends? And as Kate and her colleagues know from experience, plenty of people could be hiding many secrets...

Hunt (A Kate Redman Mystery: Book 14)

Detective Inspector Mark Olbeck and his partner have their day rudely interrupted when they witness a group of men attacking another in the street. Arrests are made but DI Kate Redman and the other officers of the Abbeyford police force are intrigued by their motive.

The dark side of vigilantism is revealed when a body is found, and the laptop of the victim reveals some true horror. But is this a simple case of a paedophile hunter's quest gone wrong? Or is there something more to this murder?

Who is the real victim here? Kate, already struggling with a life-changing decision, has to draw on all her experience, wisdom and courage as she and her colleagues hunt a ruthless killer...

Muse (A Kate Redman Mystery: Book 15)

Abbeyford, in the West Country of England, is supposed to be a safe and pleasant place to live. But no fewer than four young women have gone missing in the past few years and now another, nineteen-year-old art student Mae Denton, has disappeared.

DI Kate Redman is eager to tie up any loose ends before she goes on maternity leave. But as the case unfolds, a straightforward disappearance becomes more complicated. Who was the mysterious man whom Mae was apparently seeing, and do her friends know more than they are telling? Has she vanished for her own reasons? And who, if anyone, can Kate and her team trust?

Praise for the Kate Redman Mysteries series, from Amazon and Goodreads reviewers:

"Celina Grace gives us not only an unusual and well-built plot, but also a story which talks about too often forgotten humanity... Personal and choral human dramas intersect in a mystery that will keep you glued to the page until the end as it did for me."

"I love the Kate Redman series. At this point, I feel like the characters are old friends and have been through many life changes with them. Celina Grace is a masterful story teller with the ability to set the scenes in such a way that the reader can see them exactly. "

"One of the best I have read this year. I read about a fourth of the book early in the day, then at bedtime, I thought I would read a bit more before sleep. I finished the book at 5:20 AM. Just could not put it down."

"At last, a mystery that delivers...I found this novel superb because I got all I needed to know and none of what I didn't."

"...a gripping detective story but the main character engages you, and as well as wanting to know how the mystery turns out you want to learn more about her too."

"...amazing book, read it front to back in one visit, couldn t help myself..."
