Water washes everything away, even the bodies…

As the first female officer in Zurich’s maritime police force, Rosa Zambrano has traded a career investigating serious crimes for the serenity of the water. But now the body of her fertility doctor has been dredged up from the blue depths of the lake.

Sent to help the team looking into his death, Rosa’s search leads her from opulent villas to genetic research labs and an escort service on the outskirts of the city – and to four women, each of whom has rejected the hand she’s been dealt.

Reviews

Set in the beautiful city of Zurich and full of glorious descriptions of well-cooked and thoughtfully presented food, Deep Dark Blue deals with the subject of genetic manipulation. . . Quietly shocking and full of intriguing information, this novel shows how much more there is to Zurich than secretive bankers
