About This Book
A retired fireman is brutally murdered in the small village of Cromar, East Sussex. His son then starts to receive mysterious messages after his father's funeral, which unsettle him, and it seems that this killer has also eliminated his cousin when her body is discovered. The perpetrator is not satisfied with just tormenting him, but also embarks on the same strategy with the local police. Detective Inspector Stuart Willis, the investigating officer, is put under severe scrutiny when the serial killer starts delivering messages to his superiors, which undermine his capabilities and imply that he is a corrupt police official. At the same time, a private investigator, Conrad Jessoric, is engaged by the widow of a wealthy newspaperman to investigate the killing of her husband and a missing one hundred thousand pounds. In doing so, he unwittingly takes on a paranoid schizophrenic as a future partner, which coincides with an escalation of murders in the East Sussex area. To complicate matters further, a local couple appear to have committed suicide by jumping off the cliff at Beachy Head. Willis has his work cut out trying to establish how many deaths are connected and to find the killer who is continuously tormenting him. Another sizzling thriller from the pen of Alex Binney.
