A detective's hunt for a serial killer takes him unsettlingly close to home in this psychological thriller from the author of Portraits of the Dead.
Detective Inspector Gareth Gravel couldn't be happier to have his daughter Emily home after finishing law school. Her company is a welcome respite from his latest case—hunting a vicious and demented serial killer. But when Emily accepts a job with the solicitor Charles Turner, Grav's work and home life merge in the most disturbing way possible.
Emily has become the killer's latest obsession, and the madman will stop at nothing to make his grotesque fantasies come true. But as Grav's investigation uncovers more victims, the killer makes a bold attempt to derail his progress. Now it's up to Grav to catch a killer who is hiding in plain sight.
