About this Product
AN ABSOLUTELY GRIPPING BRITISH CRIME THRILLER FULL OF TWISTS.
She digs up Londons past crimes. Her blog is called Deadtown. Now shes dug up something that got her killed.
Detective Mary Hume stares at the crime scene in confusion. Shes in an empty flat. Peeling wallpaper. A bloodstained chair in the middle of the room.
But no body.
Her sergeant hands her a burner phone. On it is a video clip. It shows a woman. Tied to the chair in the flat, a carving knife pressed to her throat. As Mary watches in horror, the blade flashes across the womans exposed skin. She slumps forward, lifeless.
Placed in the womans lap is a piece of cardboard. Written on it in blood-red is one word: DEADTOWN.
The phone was handed in to Charing Cross police station the day before. The woman in the video is Melissa Clarke. A true crime blogger famous for exposing Londons most notorious cold cases.
Just what did Melissa dig up that got her killed?
To find the answers, Mary calls on maverick ex-police officer Raine. Raine thinks outside the box. She can reach people - and places - that Mary cant.
Then a second body is discovered - and the two detectives realize that someone is playing twisted mind games with them.
Can they pull the pieces of the puzzle together before more people die?
Perfect for fans of Mark Billingham, Lynda La Plante, Karin Slaughter, Biba Pearce and Angela Marsons.
