Sweat trickles down the girl's spine as she dances around her bedroom. The curtains blow open and a gust of hot, humid air comes through the window. She has no idea she is being watched from the street below. The dainty chain around her neck will soon be his. Another keepsake. His second broken girl. On the banks of the River Rothay, as the first rays of sunshine hit the fast-flowing water, Melody Carrick's body lies lifeless, red strangulation marks where her gold cross necklace used to hang. Detective Morgan Brookes is certain the killer was surprised by early-morning dog walkers, and she won't rest until she unearths the evidence she needs to stop his next attack. But before Morgan has a chance to attend the post-mortem, seventeen-year-old Paige Evans rushes into the police station claiming her stepfather Alan kidnapped her best friend. He has an old wooden box full of jewellery that she believes are trophies. Morgan's blood runs cold: Melody's necklace is tangled up in the chains. Morgan races to Alan's home, but on the way, she spots a young woman stumbling out of a nearby forest. She's not Paige's missing friend. Disorientated, with ropes cutting into her wrists and tears running down her face, the girl claims to have been abducted and then suddenly set free. By a man who looks nothing like Alan. Chasing the most twisted killer of her career, can Morgan discover the connection between these terrible crimes? With two girl's lives already in ruins, can she find the latest innocent victim this monster has hidden in time? An unputdownable thriller with twist after twist.
