The Intrusions

Two London detectives track a faceless, elusive threat in "a Silence of the Lambs for the Internet age" (Ian Rankin, New York Times–bestselling author of A Song for the Dark Times).

Winner, Theakston's Old Peculiar Crime Novel of the Year Award


A distressed young woman arrives at the police station claiming her friend has been abducted, and that the man threatened to return and "claim her next." Detectives Carrigan and Miller of London's Metropolitan Police are soon drawn into a terrifying new world of cyberstalking—where the threat of online intimidation, hacking, and control is ever-present. Under scrutiny themselves, and with old foes resurfacing, the pressure is on Carrigan and Miller to find the truth behind what these two women have been subjected to, in this "deeply unsettling page-turner" (Kirkus Reviews) by the Dagger Award finalist and author of A Dark Redemption and Eleven Days.



"[A] convincingly flawed hero." —Publishers Weekly


"Sherez isn't your standard police procedural series author. He writes literary crime thrillers with a joyfully dark heart, which just happen to involve police investigators . . . The Intrusions hurtles along on a twisting journey, but it's a richly layered story that has plenty to say too." —Mystery Scene Magazine


"Sherez brings a trenchant, galvanic force to the crime novel." —Financial Times


"Carrigan is a complex character, someone well worth meeting again." —The New York Times
