Discover Book: Suffer Little Angels
Crime Fiction | Casey Porter Series #1
Some crime novels shock. Others linger.
Suffer Little Angels begins with a devastating discovery: the body of four-year-old Poppy Larkin in a quiet village park. For Detective Chief Inspector Casey Porter, this is not just another case on the board. It is one that unsettles even the most seasoned among her team — not because of its brutality alone, but because of how deeply it reaches beneath the surface of an apparently peaceful community.
As the investigation unfolds, what starts as a single tragedy begins to reveal a much darker pattern. Susan Medlicott creates a slow-burning, emotionally layered story, where the tension lies not only in what is uncovered, but in what cannot be undone.
This is a crime novel that is less about sensationalism and more about aftermath: the silence that follows violence, the emotional scars left behind, and the difficult, fragile process of finding any form of closure. Casey Porter is drawn as a grounded, human investigator, shaped as much by empathy and exhaustion as by determination.
A powerful and haunting debut in what promises to be a compelling crime series.
