The seventh Simon Serrailler crime novel
How do you find a killer who doesn’t appear to exist?
Duchess of Cornwall Close: sheltered accommodation, a mix of bungalows and flats, newly built and not quite finished. Despite the bitterly cold weather, elderly residents are moving in. They don’t notice the figure in the shadows. Someone who doesn't mind the cold.
Then, one snowy night, an old lady is murdered – dragged from her bed and strangled with a length of flex.
DCS Simon Serrailler and his team desperately search for a match, aware that the killer will strike again. But when they track down a name -- Alan Keyes – they can find no birth certificate, no address, no job, no family, no passport, no dental records. Nothing. Alan Keyes does not exist.
