Description
'Dark, gripping and believable' GRAHAM MASTERTON.
Are you looking for an addictive serial killer thriller with a dark twist? EVERY NIGHT, A FAMILY DIES...
While a blizzard rages through the streets of Liverpool, a family are slaughtered in their beds. Their mutilated bodies are dragged onto the landing to form a strange pattern. None of the neighbours hears a sound.
EVERY NIGHT, SHE TRIES TO SAVE THEM...
DCI Eve Clay and her Liverpool team can't understand the secret rituals of this killer. Who would risk capture to arrange their victims so precisely?
Somewhere in Eve's mind, a long-buried memory flickers... But this is no time for hunches. She must find the killers before they strike again.
TIME IS RUNNING OUT...
First in the gripping, original and inventive Liverpool crime series introducing DCI Eve Clay.

'Dark, gripping and believable. Roberts' intimate knowledge of Liverpool makes the city into a sinister character of itself' GRAHAM MASTERTON.
'The book is fantastic! It grips hold of you right away ... A hard hitting and disturbing tale. It leaves you chilled, exhausted and most definitely uncomfortable' EUROCRIME.
'A fast-paced, chilling novel ... Short chapters, crackling dialogue and action that never lets up for a single moment ... Mark Roberts is what British crime fiction has been looking for' CRIMESQUAD.
'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' BESTSELLING CRIME THRILLERS.
