About this ebook
The perfect book for fans of serial killer thrillers and crime writers such as Peter James, Mark Billingham and Peter Robinson
If you look him in the eye, you're dead
From the outside, Robert Naysmith is a successful businessman, handsome and charming. But for years he's been playing a deadly game.
He doesn't choose his victims. Each is selected at random - the first person to make eye contact after he begins 'the game' will not have long to live. Their fate is sealed.
When the body of a young woman is found on Severn Beach, Detective Inspector Harland is assigned the case. It's only when he links it to an unsolved murder in Oxford that the police begin to guess at the awful scale of the crimes.
But how do you find a killer who strikes without motive?
Praise for Fergus McNeil
'A chilling game of cat and mouse that should keep you awake long after bedtime. DI Harland is a welcome addition to the growing ranks of British detectives' Peter Robinson, bestselling author of the DCI Banks series
'Let's welcome Fergus McNeill to the ranks of British Crime fiction innovators; he has found a darker shade of noir' Quintin Jardine, bestselling author of the Constable Bob Skinner series
'Creepy, compelling and completely convincing' Erin Kelly, bestselling author of He Said/ She Said
'A gripping first novel' Irish Independent
