About this ebook
*A RICHARD AND JUDY BOOKCLUB PICK*
Discover the gripping new detective thriller from the Sunday Times bestselling author of the Logan McRae series
‘A dark, richly satisfying story that proves just how good a crime writer he is.' Daily Mail
‘Hard to put down’ ***** Reader review
THE CLOCK IS TICKING TO CATCH A SERIAL KILLER...
Detective Constable Angus MacVicar has just landed his dream job – transferred out of uniform and assigned to Oldcastle’s biggest ongoing murder investigation: Operation Telegram, hunting the 'Fortnight Killer'.
Every two weeks another couple is targeted. One victim is left at the scene, their corpse used as a twisted message board. The second body is never seen again.
This should be the perfect chance for Angus to prove himself, but he’s been lumbered with the forensic psychologist from hell. It’s been twelve days since the Fortnight Killer last struck, and the investigation’s running out of time.
Angus's shiny new job might just be the death of him...
