The Dolls House -
Brennan And Esposito

From the outside, the house was unremarkable. Just one of many on an ordinary, suburban estate. But inside was a different matter. With pink ribbons & pink walls, stuffed toy animals everywhere & a dining table laid out for a tea party, it was a doll's house. The doll was sitting at the table.

Eviscerated. Dead. In all his years on the force, DI Phil Brennan of the Major Incident Squad has never encountered a scene like it. As he investigates he uncovers more bizarre revelations & realises that he must act fast; the next murder has already been planned & the victim is close to home... ...
