Description
‘A fast-paced crime novel that will keep you guessing until the very end.’
Closer Magazine
‘One to watch’
Bookseller
‘Fast-moving, brutally realistic and utterly compelling stories...White is proving more than a match for the likes of Val McDermid.’
Lancashire Evening Post on Last Rites
‘A serious contender to match the giants of the crime fiction world.’ Crimesquad.com on Fallen Idols
A woman is found butchered on a quiet housing estate, her tongue and eyes gouged out. Ritual murder or crime of passion?
Children are abducted and then returned to their families days later, unharmed but with no knowledge of where they have been or who took them.
DC Laura McGanity, having relocated from London to the old mill town of Blackley, quickly learns that life up north is far from peaceful. Already worried about uprooting her young son Bobby to follow her reporter boyfriend Jack Garrett back to his hometown, she must quickly get a handle on these mystifying cases terrifying the people of Blackley – without putting the local officers’ noses out of joint. Meanwhile, restless Jack is itching to get back to his writing and the cases provide the perfect opportunity to do so. But as he delves deeper into them, he finds the murky connections between the two crimes and sordid secrets. Most astonishing of all, he meets a man who ‘paints’ the future – prophecies of horrific events which he then puts onto canvas. This ‘precognition’ is not so much a gift as a curse and to Jack it becomes terrifyingly clear that many people, including his own family, are in grave danger!
An utterly gripping novel from a rising star in the crime/mystery genre whose first book Fallen Idols, was given a special mention as one of only 100 books longlisted for the World Book Day initiative for The Book to Talk About.
