The Night Watcher

The second book in the Detective Elea Baker series from New York Times, USA Today and international No.1 bestselling author. Perfect for fans of Elly Griffiths and Stuart MacBride.

Thirty years ago, a killer hid in plain sight. A predator known as the Night Watcher. When he was caught, the nightmare was supposed to be over.

But in Lincoln, the past is stirring.

The killings have started again — each one recreated in chilling detail, including a calling card that was never made public…

Detective Elea Baker is called in as old wounds reopen and fear takes hold of the city.

At first, it looks like a copycat.

Then the pattern emerges: the survivors of the Night Watcher are being targeted.

And Elea fears the truth is far darker.

This killer isn’t repeating the past.

They’re finishing it.
