✦ Synopsis


An β€˜electrifying novel – pitch-perfect and brutal … a twisted gem’ – Kate Miciak, crime editor at Bantam Delacorte USA

A run of unspeakable crimes. A series of grotesque presents. The legacy of a dead serial killer.

When former forensic artist Dr Kate Cramer discovers a 15-month-old child floating in the sea outside her Malibu home she is forced to revisit the past. A past that she thought she had left behind.

Seven years earlier she had been involved in the hunt and capture of serial killer Bobby Gleason, who stalked his victims, attacking and raping them in what the state prosecutor likened to a travelling circus of torture. After Gleason committed suicide while in prison everyone involved in the case thought they could get on with their lives - until each of the key players finds that they are being targeted in a macabre fashion.

---

The book is so full of suspenseful twists and turns that it reads like a dream – or your worst nightmare. It is not for the squeamish or the faint of heart.
