Description

A serial-killer targets the countrys most vulnerable women in this new thriller featuring Detective Carson Ryder.
They thought they were safe at last

Across the US, a secret network of crisis centres permanently relocates women in serious danger from domestic abuse. But now someone is killing them before they reach their destinations.

Detectives Carson Ryder and Harry Nautilus are having trouble gaining the trust of the volunteers who run the scheme. The only way in is for an undercover police officer to pose as a threatened woman, making herself a target and drawing the killer out.

Reinetta Early is the ideal candidate but she also happens to be Harrys niece. He always promised his sister that he would keep Reinetta safe from harm. Suddenly hes unsure if he can even keep her alive

'Superb stuff' Independent on Sunday

'A fascinating and frightening take on the genre' Independent on Sunday

'A chilling journey into a pitch-black mind' Michael Marshall, author of The Straw Men trilogy

'A sturdy hero with a clearcut mission and a setting that holds possibilities for fresh adventure. Kerley writes in a thrusting style that pushes the action from crime scene to autopsy table' New York Times Book Review
