Lesley Horton Synopsis: Snares of Guilt by Lesley Horton is the first DI Handford novel. Rukhsana Mahmood is dead, found horribly beaten. But who would want to kill a young woman who worked as a visiting care worker and was so loved and respected? Detective Inspector John Handford is assigned to the case. Along with Detective Sergeant Khalid Ali, who faces hostility and jibes of tokenism, DI Handford begins to look for possible motives for wanting Rukhsana dead. She was in a mixed marriage, and her husband Amajit’s family isn’t exactly mourning her death. But is this a punishment killing? Or was pleasant, quiet Rukhsana Mahmood betraying more than one person?
