'One of the most absorbing books I've read in a long time' MEL SHERRATT
'An enjoyably scary chiller' SUNDAY MIRROR
'The pace never slackens from the first page to the last' RACHEL ABBOTT
TO FIND A CHILD, SHE MUST BEFRIEND A KILLER . . .
Ella Williams is ten years old. She loves her granddad and her sister and her shiny new red shoes.
She's just been abducted by a killer - someone who kidnaps young girls, holds them for a few weeks then returns their bodies clothed in white foundling dresses.
The crimes are clearly linked to notorious child murderer Louis Kinsella, locked away in a high-security hospital. But is it a copycat? Or is he giving someone direct orders from behind bars?
To save Ella's life, psychologist Alice Quentin must form a relationship with Kinsella. But he is slow to give up his secrets, and all the while, time is running out...
WHAT READERS ARE SAYING:
'I can honestly say this is one if the best books I have read in a long long time' 5*
'Really really brilliant. A completely gripping psychological serial killer thriller mystery tale that keeps you on the very tips of your toes from page one and still guessing to the very last page' 5*
'Loved this book! Kate Rhodes just gets better and better!' 5*
'After thoroughly enjoying the first two Alice Quentin stories I was really looking forward to this - and it didn't disappoint. Gripping, pacey and intelligent.' 5*
'I would love to know why I have not heard of Kate Rhodes because I have just finished her latest crime and psychological thriller and oh wow what a stunning read. This is one of the most intense, compelling and absolutely convincing read I have had in a while' 5*
