by Jane Casey

The latest crime thriller featuring detective Maeve Kerrigan - winner of the Mary Higgins Clark Award

He meets women.
He gains their trust.
He kills them.

That's all Maeve Kerrigan knows about the man she is hunting. Three women have been strangled in their homes by the same sadistic killer. With no sign of a break-in, every indication shows that they let him in.

But the evidence is pointing at a shocking suspect: DI Josh Derwent, Maeve's colleague.

Maeve refuses to believe he could be involved, but how well does she really know him? Because this isn't the first time Derwent's been accused of murder...

What do you do as a cop, when you're normal, abrasive senior partner is a suspect in a murder? This is what Maeve Kerrigan has to face up to, the murders are gruesome and it resembles a murder in DI Josh Derwent's past, she has to deal with his acerbic witticisms and survive this, but with divided loyalties how can she solve the case.

It's an interesting story about someone respecting someone else without actually really liking them.

I will be continuing to read this author.
