A propos du livre

Quatrième de couverture :

Praise for Richard Montanari

'Told at breakneck pace, with more than one truly frightening villain, and a protagonist whose tenacity in the face of evil makes him a hero for our times, you turn the pages as if your very life depends on it' Daily Mail

'A relentlessly suspenseful, soul-chilling thriller that hooks you instantly' Tess Gerritsen

'A no-holds-barred thriller that thrusts the reader into the black soul of the killer ... those with a taste for Thomas Harris will look forward to the sure-to-follow sequel' Library Journal

'Be prepared to stay up all night' James Ellroy

'A specialist in serial killer tales ... a wonderfully evocative writer' Publishers Weekly

'Razor-sharp plotting with a powerful narrative ... thrills to its very satisfying end' Chicago Tribune

'The novel is, like the nameless killer's victims, well executed. And like the killer himself, fiendishly twisted. A real page turner' Booklist

'Savvy and sharp ... as well-written a thriller as The Silence of the Lambs ... A winner'
Nelson DeMille

'With this novel, Montanari's reputation is set in stone - or written in blood - alongside the likes of Connelly, Slaughter and Ellroy' Crime Time Magazine

Présentation de l'éditeur :

It is fall in Philadelphia and the mutilated body of a man is found in one of the poorest neighbourhoods of the city. The victim has been viciously tortured to death. It's the work of a sadistic mind in free fall.

When homicide detectives Kevin Byrne and Jessica Balzano investigate, they soon realise that their crime scene is linked to the past. Eight years ago, another body was found in the same place, in the same position, killed in the same manner. That case was never closed. Apart from their killer's unusual calling cards, the crime scene photos - past and present - are identical.

As another brutalised body appears, then another, it becomes horrifyingly clear that someone is recreating unsolved murders from Philadelphia's past in the most sinister of ways. And the killer is closer than they think...
