The Atonement of St. Jude
In the village of St. Jude, nothing stays buried forever.
Eighteen years ago, a baby drowned in a bath, and fifteen year old Lottie Langford paid the price. Branded careless. Branded dangerous. Branded guilty. The village never forgave her.
Now she’s back.
Living under a new name and carrying fresh grief of her own, Charlotte Rutherford returns to the place that destroyed her. The cottages still lean into the same narrow lanes. The church still casts its long shadow. And the people still remember.
But St. Jude remembers only part of the story.
As old tensions resurface and whispers begin again, Charlotte realises that the past is not finished with her. Someone in the village knows what really happened that night. Someone who has been hiding in plain sight.
In a community built on reputation and secrets, the truth will demand its atonement.
The Atonement of St. Jude is the gripping first instalment in the Chapman and Popescu series. A tense, atmospheric crime novel about guilt, redemption, and the darkness that can thrive behind closed doors.

A Richly Rewarding Read

Ken White has struck gold with The Atonement of St. Jude. Dark undercurrents abound in a richly drawn village in the heart of Kent. He has created an oddball couple of characters whose humour lightens the darkness of the plot. Despite dealing with the intense traumas of infant death and sexual abuse this is not a depressing read. The author’s powerful narrative drive has created a real page-turner. A bevy of well-rounded characters flesh out the twists and turns of the various sub-plots which make this a truly exciting read. I eagerly anticipate the sequel.
