One Last Prayer for the Rays A shocking and exhilarating new crime thriller for 2019 (A DCI Yorke Thriller Book 1)

"An explosive and visceral debut with the most terrifying of killers. Wes Markin is a new name to watch out for in crime fiction, and I can't wait to see more of Detective Yorke." - Bestselling Crime Author Stephen Booth



School should be the safest place in the world. Not this winter.


Detective Michael Yorke faces his most harrowing case yet.


When 12-year-old Paul disappears from school, Yorke's only clue is a pool of animal blood. Fearing the worst, he turns toward the most obvious suspect, recently released local murderer, Thomas Ray.


But as the snow in Salisbury worsens, Ray's mutilated body is discovered, and Yorke is left with no choice but to journey into the sinister heart of a demented family that has plagued the community for generations. Can he save the boy? Or will the evil he discovers change him forever?


The shocking and exhilarating new crime thriller will have you turning the pages late into the night.

My first book by the author and the first book in a series. I am hooked already. Gruesome and gritty with characters who come to life perfectly and have you loving or hating them. Fabulous book.
