Fourteen-year-old Sienna is Joe's daughter's best friend - Joe has watched her grow up and seen the troubled look in her eyes. Against the advice of the police, he launches his own investigation, embarking upon a hunt that will lead him to a predatory schoolteacher; a conspiracy of silence and a race-hate trial that is captivating the nation.
With dark psychological twists and heart-stopping tension, BLEED FOR ME is a page-turning thriller from one of the most brilliant crime writers of today, Michael Robotham.
**Includes BONUS first chapter of the explosive new Joe O'Loughlin thriller, THE OTHER WIFE**
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
When 14-year-old Sienna Hegarty appears at the back door of psychologist Joe O'Loughlin's estranged wife, dazed and dripping blood, O'Loughlin knows he must help in this taut thriller from Robotham, the fifth in this U.K. series but the sixth to be published in the U.S. (after 2011's The Wreckage). Everyone assumes Sienna murdered her father, ex-cop Ray Hegarty, found in the family home outside Bath with his throat slit, because he may have molested Sienna. Volunteering to provide the psychological assessment for the trial, O'Loughlin calls on a London friend, retired police inspector Vincent Ruiz, to investigate on the sly. Together they discover that Sienna's problems extend beyond her troubled home life, with clues pointing to the school she and O'Loughlin's teenage daughter, Charlie, attend as well as a high-profile trial involving British National Party members. O'Loughlin, who suffers from Parkinson's, continues to be an appealingly flawed hero.

Lost
Brilliant! A few early mornings with this one, so hard to put down. Great suspense and interesting and realistic characters. On to the next one, I think I’m definitely addicted.
The stories keep getting better
Michael Robotham’s stories get under your skin. I find myself reading them when I should be doing other things. His storytelling is addictive.
Many times I was on edge, needing to know what was going on, and who did what, and why. This is certainly a thriller of a story. Really love the main character Joe, also his family. I’ve taken a shine to Ruiz too, he is another wonderful character.
Great reading.
