After being summoned to a crime scene late one Friday afternoon, Detective Mark Turpin arrives to find the body of a man, his face obscured by a plastic sheet wrapped around his head.
When the victim’s final moments are traced to a rented property in the Oxfordshire countryside, Mark discovers another body, one that has been brutally cut to pieces and left to rot.
As the manhunt for the murderer intensifies, Mark uncovers several unresolved cold cases with similarities to his own and exposes a killer who has managed to escape both national and
international scrutiny.
Then one of his colleagues disappears without a trace, and Mark is faced with an
impossible situation that could plunge his entire future into jeopardy…

My thoughts: Another clever case from one of the best crime writers out there. A man is found in a rented office, suffocated by bubble wrap, he was also renting a house locally, which contains another dead body. Who is this man and why does he appear to have committed murder and then been killed himself?
As the detectives unravel the secrets of their gruesome finds, following a trail that stretches across the country and even as far away as Dubai, they’re looking not just for one killer, but possibly two.
When Jan disappears while following a lead, the team must put their investigation on hold to search for one of their own, and time is running out. Has she fallen foul of their killer or someone else?
Clever, twisting and engaging, you’ll be on the edge of your seat as the detectives race to rescue their colleague and find the killer before he escapes.
