The Devil Comes to Bylands: A British Psychological Crime Thriller (A Denman & Tallis Cotswold Crime Thriller, 3)

The Bylands Spa Retreat sells serenity―five-star suites, scented pools, and the promise of silence. But beneath its manicured grounds lie the ruins of an asylum where nightmares were routine and mercy was forbidden. Private investigator Sean Tallis came for a weekend escape. His colleague, Saskia Denman, arrived uninvited, and walked straight into a murder scene. When a biohazard scare traps everyone inside the retreat, Denman and Tallis realise the murder is only the beginning. The lockdown isn’t containment―it’s cover. Behind the sealed doors, someone is reviving the asylum’s darkest experiments. And they’re not finished. The Devil Comes to Bylands is a chilling and atmospheric instalment in the Denman & Tallis Cotswold Crime Thrillers series by Jacqueline Beard.
