The Brutal Murder of Ireena Lothario

Ireena Lothario, the beautiful, Russian born, wife of Australian mining magnate Oscar Lothario, is kidnapped, then brutally and senselessly murdered. Detective Inspector Andrew Daniels is charged with finding her killer.

Barely coping with the tragic death of his own wife and trying desperately to raise his seven year old son without her, D.I. Daniels, together with his sexually diverse partner, D.C. Jayne Usher, attempt to chase down the four men responsible. But before their investigations can reveal the mastermind behind Ireena's murder, one by one Andrew's suspects join their victim in the grave.

Why was the beautiful, rich, woman killed so needlessly and violently? What deadly secret did Ireena Lothario carry with her to the grave? A secret so devastating it would compel her killer to tie her to a chair and drive a garden pick into her head.

Set in Far North Queensland, Australia, 'The Brutal Murder of Ireena Lothario' is Kevin William Barry's ninth novel.
