Kissing the Demons by Kate Ellis

Thirteen Torland Place was the scene of five terrible murders back in the 19th century, and was also linked to the more recent disappearance of two teenage girls. When a student living in the house is found murdered, DI Joe Plantagenet wonders whether her death has anything to do with the house's grim history. Then other, similar deaths come to light and he fears a ruthless killer is at work in the ancient Yorkshire city of Eborby, a killer who deprives each victim of one of their five senses. Could the deaths be connected to Obediah Shrowton, an executed murderer whose presence still seems to linger in the house? Or is there a yet more sinsiter and dangerous explanation?

Kate Ellis was born and raised in Liverpool, and she went to Manchester to study acting. She worked in teaching, marketing, and accounting before winning the North West Playwrights competition and becoming a published playwright. She has always been attracted by crime and mystery stories, as well as medieval history and archaeology, which she likes to weave into her books. She lives with her husband, two sons, and an overweight cat named Vivaldi in North Cheshire, England.
