Daughters of Eve by Nina Campbell

When a high-profile murder lands literally at her feet, Detective Emilia Hart sees a chance to expand her caseload beyond the endless succession of domestic violence matters she is forced to investigate. But this is no simple investigation.   Another body turns up, then another. All men, all shot, with a similar MO. All had offended against women or children. Few had been charged with those crimes - and none convicted.
