Synopsis

DCI Eve Clay got the call at five minutes to midnight. A family of six, slaughtered in their beds, their bodies dragged out to the landing to form an arcane pattern. Outside, a blizzard rages past the well-kept houses of The Serpentine. None of the neighbors heard a sound. Someone took great care to arrange those bodies so precisely. But who? And why? Somewhere in Eve's minds, a long-buried memory flickers. But there is no time for hunches. She must find the killers before they strike again. As Liverpool holds its breath, DCI Eve Clay hunts a ruthless killer who knows more about her past than she does.

Review:

'The location of the final showdown is an inspired choice and definitely one where I can imagine skulduggery happening! A great start to the series and the second one has already been downloaded to my kindle' Go Buy the Book. 'A fast-paced, chilling novel that is a genuine one-sitting read ... Mark Roberts is what British crime fiction has been looking for by creating a genuine lead character and a stark setting with great potential for more novels to come. 5/5' Crime Squad. 'A high quality crime novel, well written with some very good twists in the plot ... I'm looking forward to reading more from this author and to further instalments in what promises to be an excellent series' Sarah Ward, author of In Bitter Chill, Crime Pieces. 'The book is fantastic! It grips hold of you right away with a tantalizing prologue that feeds you some tasty morsels and sets you up, ready, for the horrors that are to follow ... [Mark Roberts] has already been added to my growing list of favourites and I am really excited to see what he produces next' Euro Crime. 'This is one of the most thought provoking, powerful serial killing murders I've ever read. It's brutal, but I found that the plot was so deep, so twisted, intense and clever that there was no way I could put the book down until the final page. 5/5' Best Selling Crime Thrillers. 'Intricate, fast-paced, with a sense of the macabre ... a genuinely innovative crime writer' Daily Mail. 'Dark, gripping and believable. Roberts' intimate knowledge of Liverpool makes the city into a sinister character of itself' Graham Masterton.
