‘A riveting crime novel with crackling dialogue and brilliant characterisation, shot through with dark humour… As good as Michael Connelly or Karin Slaughter at their best.’ Mark Edwards, No. 1 Kindle bestseller

Detectives Kovac and Liska return in the latest psychological suspense novel from number one New York Times bestselling author Tami Hoag.

A middle-aged couple - hacked to death in their own home - with a samurai sword. Normal people. Who were they? And why were they targeted?

Twenty years ago a policeman was murdered in his own back garden and the killer was never caught.

One woman might link these mysteries. But she is being watched. Can Detectives Nikki Liska and Sam Kovac find her before it is too late?

Suspense fiction doesn’t get smarter than this. Taut, tense and terrifying, Hoag weaves a relentlessly thrilling tale which twists and turns with every page.
