Summary

A GRIPPING CRIME THRILLER FOR FANS OF KARIN SLAUGHTER, VAL MCDERMID AND PETER MAY

YOU CAN RUN BUT YOU CAN'T HIDE

A man is found buried in a secluded wood on the outskirts of London. Naked, beaten and bruised; forensics also show that he hasn't eaten in the 24 hours before his murder.

The hunt is on.

As more bodies are unearthed in the same state, DCI Antonia Hawkins struggles to find a pattern in the seemingly random killings.

But who is the hunter?

Hawkins is starting to believe that the victims have all been captured, kept and hunted down like animals by a special kind of killer playing a twisted game.

And so far, the killer is the one winning . . .
