DISCOVER ONE OF THE MOST EXCITING CRIME MYSTERIES YOU’LL READ THIS YEAR.

Detective Sara Hirst has moved from London to the Serious Crimes Unit in beautiful Norfolk.

SARA FACES HER TOUGHEST AND MOST BIZARRE CASE YET.

The first body is found forced inside a huge terracotta urn on the lawn of a country manor in a remote corner of North Norfolk.

A few days later, a young woman is found, tied to a golden chair with her throat slashed.

At both crime scenes, the killer leaves a bizarre calling card.

The victims were part of a group of friends at university back in the day. Two of them are dead. Two are still alive — but for how much longer?

The team’s new DCI, Hayley Hudson, is convinced the prime suspect is Dom Wilkins, one of the victims’ old flames.

But Detective Sara thinks she’s missing something obvious. Can she stop a serial killer before they strike again?

This gripping, character-driven crime thriller is perfect for fans of Joy Ellis, J.M. Dalgliesh, Matt Brolly, Biba Pearce, Rachel McLean, Rachel Lynch and Angela Marsons.
